This 1976 D-28 features a non-scalloped and non-forward-shifted brace, Grover rotomatic pegs, black pickguard, square rod, and blue case. 1976 was the year of America's bicentennial. Popeye magazine was launched, and young people all over Japan focused their attention on American fashion, sports, cars, and music. Martin guitars were also introduced in the Made in U.S.A. catalog published the previous year, and like Levi's jeans and Red Wing boots, Martin guitars became one of the most coveted American items. This D-28 is a representative model of Martin guitars.
The top spruce has impressive bear-crows on the upper left and lower right. There are some dents, scratches, weather checks, and cloudy paint, but there are no Martin cracks and no noticeable damage. The neck angle has been adjusted, refretted, saddle replaced, nut raised, and pickguard replaced at a partner repair store. The pickguard has been painted on the surface to make it look similar to the original. A strap pin has been retrofitted to the heel of the neck, and the bridge pin has been replaced with a recent one. The sound and playability of this guitar are perfect.
The characteristic of the products of the time was a fat sound with horsepower. This particular instrument is no exception. The bass is tight and the balance of each register is good.
This is a D-28 from the Blue Case era. This is the perfect item for playing folk, rock, and bluegrass music of that era.

ノン・スキャロップド&ノン・フォワードシフテッド・ブレース、グローヴァー・ロトマティック・ペグ、黒ピックガード、スクエア・ロッド、ブルー・ケースをフィーチャーした1976年製のD-28。1976年と言えばアメリカ建国200年に湧いた年。雑誌ポパイが創刊され、日本中の若者がアメリカのファッション、スポーツ、車、音楽に注目しました。前年に発行されたメイド・インU.S.A.カタログでもマーティン・ギターは紹介され、リーバイスのジーンズ、レッド・ウィングのブーツ同様、マーティンは憧れのアメリカン・アイテムの一つとなりました。そのマーティンの代表機種がこちらD-28です。
トップのスプルースの左上と右下のベア・クロウが印象的です。打痕、引っ掻き傷、ウェザー・チェック、塗膜の曇りが散見されますが、マーティン・クラックの発生はなく、著しく目立つダメージはありません。提携先リペア・ショップにてネックのアングル調整、リフレット、サドル交換、ナットの嵩上げ、ピックガード交換をいたしました。ピックガードは表面に塗装を施しオリジナルに近い雰囲気にしてあります。ネック・ヒールにはストラップ・ピンが後付けされており、またブリッジ・ピンは近年製の物に交換されています。演奏性、サウンドともに申し分ありません。
馬力を感じさせる野太い鳴りが当時の製品の特徴。当個体もその例に漏れません。低音が引き締まっており、各音域のバランスが全体に良好です。
憧れのブルー・ケース時代のD-28です。あの時代のフォーク、ロック、ブルーグラスを演奏するにはまさにこれと言えるアイテムでしょう。
