1980 Martin D12-28 12 String Acoustic Guitar, Guitar Top, Sitka Spruce top

Excited to have this one in! The Martin D12-28 12 string Acoustic Guitar is the 12 string version of the famous D28. The D28 is one of Martins top selling models, an icon of the guitar world and one that many makers replicate. You don't see many of these 12 string versions on the market, so I am thrilled to have it in. It is all original (from what I can tell). These Martins have Sitka Spruce tops, with Indian Rosewood back & sides. Mahogany neck, Ebony fingerboard and bridge. Has a 635mm Scale length and 14 fret body join. The woods are all of the highest spec which you come to expect from Martin. The back is near perfect straight grained rosewood, a real beauty.

This guitar is in great condition, it does have some play wear to show for its 40 years, a few marks on the top (I've included some of these in the photos below) and the finish has dulled in places. But generally it is in great condition, string heights are low and the belly shows little to no signs of bulging (a common problem for older 12 strings). Comes with original Martin case. £2800 and this beauty could be yours.
