The Martin Custom Shop Expert 000-28K 1921 has an understated elegance that makes sense for a guitar inspired by Martin’s early all-koa instruments. Limited to 50 pieces,
it’s a special addition to the Custom Shop selection at Northeast Music Center.
Hawaiian koa forms the top, back, and sides, with a thin vintage gloss finish showing off the figure. Fine herringbone and grained ivoroid binding provide just enough contrast around the body. The faux tortoise pickguard sits beneath the finish—a thoughtful detail that contributes to the guitar’s period-inspired appearance.
The construction is equally considered. Martin pairs traditional hide glue assembly with VTS-treated Authentic scalloped Adirondack spruce X-bracing, building responsiveness and resonance into the design. For a player who enjoys working with touch and dynamics, that responsiveness is a compelling part of the appeal.
The neck dimensions are worth a close look. A 1 7/8" nut width, 2 3/8" bridge string spacing, and 25.4" scale length create a spacious playing surface, particularly appealing to fingerstyle players who prefer more room between the strings. The Authentic 1921 neck carve carries the vintage influence through to the feel, while an adjustable truss rod allows for relief adjustments.
An Authentic-thickness ebony fingerboard, diamond-and-square abalone inlays, and Golden Age bright nickel side-mount tuners complete the instrument.
