Inspired by Billy Strings' prized 1940 D-28, the Martin D-28 Billy Strings model blends pre-war design with modern enhancements tailored to Billy's high-energy bluegrass style. One of the standout features is the unique 25" scale length, which reduces string tension for easier bends and faster playing, perfect for Billy's signature rapid-fire licks. This custom scale length falls between the typical Martin long and short scales, offering a distinct feel that enhances both comfort and precision.

The guitar's slimmer 1 23/32" nut width and modified low oval satin neck profile further enhance its playability. This smaller nut width, slightly narrower than the traditional 1 3/4", gives players added agility. Paired with the satin-finished neck, the D-28 Billy Strings offers a smooth, fast-playing experience that feels natural and comfortable for extended sessions, whether you're on stage or in the studio.

Tonally, the D-28 Billy Strings delivers the deep, resonant sound that Martin Dreadnoughts are known for. Its solid East Indian rosewood back and sides provide a rich, balanced tone with strong bass, while the solid spruce top adds dynamic response and projection. Whether you're playing hard-driving bluegrass or exploring softer, more melodic genres, the D-28 offers versatility across a range of playing styles.

Aesthetically, the guitar reflects the timeless look of vintage Martins with bold herringbone trim, antique white binding, and an antique toner on the top. The ebony fingerboard features abalone diamond and square inlay, and the nickel enclosed gear tuners, exclusive to Martin, ensure stable tuning. This blend of classic craftsmanship and modern playability makes the D-28 Billy Strings a fitting tribute to both Billy's reverence for traditional bluegrass and his genre-defying style. Each guitar features a custom paper label with his pre-printed signature and graphic.
