The Korena take
Martin’s 000-28 Modern Deluxe is a right-handed Auditorium acoustic with a solid spruce VTS top, East Indian rosewood back and sides, and an ebony fingerboard and bridge. Its construction combines a dovetail neck joint and natural protein glue with modern touches including gold frets, gold open-gear Waverly tuners, Liquidmetal bridge pins, and a carbon-fiber bridgeplate. The Vintage Deluxe neck uses a High Performance Taper, and the guitar comes with a hardshell case.
