Martin OM-28

Post by QuattroDore »

Any reviews. Its my favorite so far in my search for a guitar upgrade. I play alot of fingerstyle, so the Auditorium body is right up my alley.

I was just curious as to what everyone thought, as most Martin reviews are dreads. And owners of the auditorium Taylors (x14s I believe) feel free to chime in as well.

Yeah, I don't mind the Vneck. My thumb placement is very low on the neck, so I actually prefer it. Kinda sets it in place. I've been looking at their website and the 000-28 is pretty much the same guitar without the v. Is this true? Is the 000 body the same as OM?

yeah, they're very similar. Different necks and finishes, but overall, very similar. I too prefer the V-neck though due to the way I play, plus I like the vintage tone and tuners on the OM-28V.
