Comments:
unbelievely full and bright sound.i took the action down a bit.i own several nice acoustics,but they just sit in the case since i bought this,im slowly selling them off.ive tried to match my enthusiam for the last 8 years toward playing others such as taylors, gibsons, or anything else around. but to me my martin is the best and i look forward to playing it everyday.i have a couple people who come to my house just to play my guitar and not to see me

Comments about
Martin HD-28vr
:
the guitar finish has been peeling off since i got it. martin is standing behind this and refinishing it for free, but i lose it for 14-15 weeks while they work on it.its been there 1 week and i miss it everyday. im still marking this as a perfect 10 ,because the sound and feel of this guitar out weighs the peeling of the finish to me
Overall Opinions of
Martin HD-28vr
:
Pros:
the best sounding and easiest playing guitar ive ever played. it just keeps getting better as it ages. keeps its value (they only made the vr for a short while). i saw one on ebay that sold for more than i bought it for new
Cons:
if you have a problem it takes a long time to get back. very tempermental. dont leave it out of the case. it will dry out, quickly
