Resonant Tone With the Iconic Dreadnought Body

The D-28's non-scalloped bracing shifts the guitar's tone forward, resulting in clear low end, articulate mids and sweet, ringing highs. You'll love projecting chord melodies, flatpicking lines and rhythm parts with the D-28 Satin's commanding voice.

Satin Finish Provides Instant Vintage Appeal

The D-28 Satin sets itself apart with its satin finish on the spruce top, rosewood back and sides. The soft sheen adds an aged, played-in look, giving this brand new guitar a vintage vibe. The satin finish smooths out the attack slightly, emphasizing the guitar's warmth and resonance. Whether you're playing blues, folk, country or bluegrass, the D-28 Satin's vintage satin appeal lets your tone shine.

Modified Bracing Balances Tone for All-Purpose Use

This D-28 Satin dreadnought uses forward-shifted, non-scalloped X bracing. This bracing pattern balances the guitar's voice, providing a robust low end, articulate midrange and clear, ringing treble notes. It's an excellent option for flatpicking, fingerpicking, strumming chords and playing melody lines. The modified bracing helps the D-28 Satin project while retaining nuance, making it versatile enough for studio work, songwriting and live performance.

Play Comfortably With a Modified Low Oval Neck

The D-28 Satin's mahogany neck has a modified low oval profile that feels smooth and inviting in your hand. It offers a slimmer feel compared to traditional dreadnought necks, making it comfortable for long practice or gigging sessions. The ebony fingerboard enhances resonance and provides clear note articulation. Open-gear tuners keep the D-28 Satin in tune through multiple sets, while the Bone nut and compensated saddle optimize intonation.
