The estimated value range for the Martin HD-28V is $3,600 to $5,400. What makes it special? The photo-negative reversal of a classic Martin’s color scheme. “I got the idea from our limited-edition Grand Ole Opry guitar, which featured a white fingerboard,” says designer Dick Boak. “In my head, I merged it with our black Johnny Cash model, and the idea was born.”
Check out the instrument details and photo gallery.
The auction begins on April 20. To learn about the other 11 guitars and place a bid, please visit AcousticGuitar.com/auction.
