Martin Standard Series Reimagined OMC-28E Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Rosewood Back and Sides, LR Baggs Anthem Electronics
Player's Perspective
Music Store Live is proud to offer up this Martin OMC-28E. The Standard Series was reimagined in 2018 and gave these guitars in Martin's lineup a nice little facelift.
The OMC-28E is one of the best steel-string acoustic guitars you're going to find. I pulled it out to get a feel for the sound and wound up finding it very difficult to put back down. It's all about pure, natural tone. The bass response is dynamic and full but never overpowering, and the high-end has a crystalline quality to it. Strummed chords sound balanced and full of life, and flatpicking reveals the body's incredible response to changes in playing volume. Fingerstyle players will love the tonal separation as well as the comfortable nut width. The neck is smooth and easy playing in every position, and the fretboard has a precise, exacting feel.I love the finish - this guitar's subtle, classy looks will never go out of style. We've gone over the setup and have made sure that everything is dialed in right where it needs to be.
If you're looking for a lifelong acoustic, don't pass over this one.
