A Revisited Standard Series, True to Martin's DNA
Handcrafted in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, the Standard Series embodies Martin's heritage: solid woods, traditional lutherie techniques, and a sonic identity that has shaped modern music. On the OM-28 LH Golden Era, the brand preserves the vintage soul while integrating targeted improvements focused on comfort and performance, such as the GE Sitka spruce bracing, a finer touch with slightly beveled edges, and refined joint details at the headstock and heel.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
This OM-format folk guitar is aimed at intermediate to advanced players seeking an expressive and nuanced instrument capable of responding to dynamic playing. Its ergonomics and balance make it an excellent companion for fingerstyle, acoustic blues, pop, and folk, with clarity that remains readable in alternate tunings. The left-handed version allows players to experience the feel of a great vintage-inspired Martin in a truly dedicated configuration.
Sound Characteristics
The solid Sitka spruce top delivers attack, clarity, and a wide dynamic range, ideal for transitioning from delicate playing to stronger strumming. The solid East Indian rosewood back and sides enrich the spectrum with deep lows, bright highs, and generous harmonics, while maintaining excellent note separation. The Golden Era (GE) X-bracing promotes a more "breathing" response, increased resonance, and longer sustain, all in a distinctly vintage spirit. The dovetail neck joint contributes to vibration transfer, while the ebony fingerboard and bridge enhance precision, definition, and a solid feel under the fingers.
