Martin HD-28

I bought this guitar in the nineties. It's all original, and it's in excellent to mint condition with the original hard shell case. I'm not sure when it was made, but the serial number is 623780. It also has a factory pre-amp built in. Thank you in advance for any information you can provide.

Hi, Kelly--

The serial number indicates a late 1996-early 1997 manufacture date.

The Blue Book does not show the HD-28 as having onboard electronics, so the published values do not include the pre amp.

Here are the Blue Book values:

HD 28

Excellent $1,600 - 1,900
Average $1,100 - 1,300
