Martin acoustic HD-28-V The first play Johnny Rushmore

CF Martin RULES ! Forward shifted bracing is what I meant to say ! The " Cannon " actual name is the HD-28-V : herringbone dreadnought D-28 Vintage by CF Martin of Nazareth Pennsylvania ! They ( artist relations ) picked this guitar for me and I am overjoyed and overwhelmed at the sound and grace of this amazing acoustic guitar ! This is the vintage model and is an exact reproduction in the construction technique from the 30's -the only difference is East Indian rosewood instead of brazillian , due to it being an endangered species on the cites 2 list .

Hi thanks for your fabulous demo.. would you think it sounds the same as the D41special wich has the same formward shifter "x" and scaloped braces ?

I'v got to wait three months to have yours while the d41 special is in the shop.. i dont even know if I order the same as yours if it will sound as good as yours.. thanks :-)

@smartti1970 They both are awesome either way you cant go wrong really but I DO like the HD 28 v a lot !

I'm going guitar shopping tomorrow. I hope I find something that gets me as excited as this guy is. Congrats man.

[awesomesix]

Good luck on your guitar search ! martin is the best especially with their repair and also with their consistency in a great guitar sound !

[OgreDaddy]

I'm really happy to see you expanding your horizons going forward with the acoustic and a new band.

I knew you'd get Martin fever after playing John K's '34 00-42 :-)

[awesomesix]

I am so blest man ! I thought it would be so cool to record my first licks on this guitar for to share with everyone who knows me and loves great guitars and picking !

1:33...yeah it's very loud and it's even louder when you jackhammer the fuck out of the strings like that! haha. Anyway, I'm getting one

It's hard to over-drive a martin!, but i think the "Jackhammering" Johnny just gave it

caused all that rich tone to run for the hills.

How about the Modified V neck, did it take long to get used to that neck? I don't quite have the amt. needed for the HD-28V so I'm thinking I still can't go wrong with a HD-28 could I? Martins Low Profile neck is that more like a C-shape on an Electric guitar? Never had an acoustic before but played a bunch of Martins at GC and the HD-28 stood out to me. Sounded much better than the Performing Artist Series I played.

Having got a D-28 and its 12 string cousin I can completely identify with your enthusiasm - they just make a body feel good even when you just look at them.

Playing is just an absolute bonus!

Does it for me.

[zachNewYork]

Good playing Country! I want one.

[remnent7]

as soon as he started playing i yelled NO cause he just raped the guitar...

[remnent7]

Now imagine how good it would sound if he had some brand new marquis strings on it...

[Stewdogin1]

I think it's awesome that you recorded that moment for everyone. Any guitarist can relate to the feelings you were experiencing and it was cool to see how psyched you were! Still in love with it? My HD-35 sits a bit more than it should. I think I'll bust it out thanks to you...

[namjah]

haha, dont you just love this guitaR?!

true cannon, no doubt.

@smartti1970 Cool ! The Martins are really consistent !

[smartti1970]

@awesomesix thanks very much for your reply. My only concern is when they get to bright. I wander how consistent the guitars are.. I think i'm gonna have to wait 3months for the Hd28v :-) by then it will be my birthday.. the looks of the D41 is a little to bling but I do hope the sound of th Hd28v will be the same. happy music to you..
