Martin & Co. OM-28E LRB (2025)

Description

<h1 style="text-align: justify;">The OM-28E LRB (2025) is an acoustic guitar with an Orchestra Model shape from Martin & Co's "Standard" series, electrified with an Lr Baggs Anthem system. It features a Spruce top, Indian Rosewood back and sides, a select Hardwood neck, and an Ebony fingerboard. It is characterized by GE-Scalloped bracing, which provides greater brightness and sound projection, a further flattened GE Modified Low Oval neck profile, and more rounded heel, neck, and bridge edges for greater comfort, and bone bridge pins. It has a 44.45 mm nut width, a 645 mm scale length, and a gloss finish on the top, back, and sides.</h1><h2>Overview of the OM-28E LRB (2025) by Martin & Co.</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">Compact, impressive, and with scalloped bracing, the OM-28 brings your sound to life, whether you're fingerpicking, strumming, or playing solo. A perfect balance across all six strings, bold herringbone, East Indian rosewood, ebony, spruce, and vintage details give a classic look to a timeless sound. Thanks to the Lr Baggs Anthem amplification system, you can blend the classic sound of the Element piezo with the Anthem condenser microphone, which adds the nuances of the soundboard and guitar body to the overall sound, restoring the instrument's original timbre.<br />One of the main innovations of the 2025 Standard series is the use of Golden Era (GE) Sitka spruce bracing for the soundboard, a detail also present in the Modern Deluxe series, which provides a more vintage and airy tone with enhanced sustain. The modified "Low Oval" GE neck profile maintains the classic shape but has been optimized to offer a vintage appeal. The fingerboard has been thinned and features rounded edges for greater comfort, while the string spacing at the nut has been perfected. The new GE "modern belly" bridge features softer, more comfortable angles. Standard Series guitars are now equipped with bone or ebony bridge pins, depending on the model. Aesthetic updates include an elongated neck diamond, an angled cut nut, and a more articulated, vintage-style heel.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="The distinctive features of the new 2025 Martin & Co.
