Steal this $5200 mint-condition Vintage Series Martin Guitar
Here’s the deal.
I know a guy who has a carefully cared for, mint-condition Martin 00-28VS. It’s a stunning 12-fret body acoustic guitar that demands admiration. American retailers list it at USD$3, 499.
Factor in shipping, insurance and an agonizing 7% GST, and you’re looking at a whopping SGD$5, 200 for this guitar – that is, if you want to bring it in from the States yourself.
But not today. I’ve arranged to help you acquire this breathtaking Martin 00-28VS at an unbeatable $1000 discount. It’s almost daylight robbery. More on that in a wee bit though.
First, the specs:
The 00-28VS, designed with delicate precision, delivers a luscious cocktail of:
• Alluring sound quality
• Seductive aesthetic appeal
• Robust strength
The 00-28VS’s alluring sound quality
• Cut with solid Sitka Spruce and solid East Indian Rosewood, the 00-28VS’s Grand Concert body comfortably delivers a wide, dynamic response. These woods sharpen the articulation of each note. Whether you’re into fingerstyle, or you’re a heavy picker, you can expect the Martin 00-28VS to give you a robust and consistent tone
• The 00-28VS’s 12-fret body size makes it compact. It’s small but loud. The Martin 00-28VS is designed to deliver both high resonance and high sustenance when you play it
• The East Indian Rosewood sides and back lavishes an invigorating crisp tone that is refreshingly clear
• The Sitka Spruce top delivers a pleasantly warm, rich and mellow overtone
• Sitka Spruce and East Indian Rosewood are solid woods that flex over time. Like fine wine, they mature with age. While this one’s already 4 years old, wait till you’ve owned it for a few more. The guitar’s clean sound only gets better
The 00-28VS’ seductive aesthetic appeal
• The 00-28VS’s natural colour is reaffirmed with a polished gloss finish because of the aging toner used to create it’s finely-aged, vintage appearance
• The ebony fretboard has elegantly designed ‘Diamond & Squares’ inlays to re-create the guitar’s classic pre-WWII look
• This Martin 00-28VS is in mint condition. No dinks or blemishes whatsoever. The cosmetics, playability and sound are in perfect condition
• This 00-28VS has been carefully stored in a smoke-free environment, and has never been used for gigs. When not being played, it’s kept in the original hardshell case to preserve the wood’s freshness
The 00-28VS’s robust strength
• It’s important for a guitar to look and sound good. But for it to last long, it also needs to have enduring strength. That’s why the Martin 00-28VS is more than a pretty face
• Here’s an interesting fact: The US Navy has been using Sitka Spruce to shield their long-range ballistic missiles since the late 1950s because of it’s naturally occuring, high-endurance properties. This speaks volumes of the Martin 00-28VS’s strength and durability
• But you can never be too careful, can you? That’s why the Sitka Spruce top is reinforced with a Standard “X” Scalloped brace, delivering more muscle and stability to the 00-28VS
• The neck is constructed with Spanish Cedar, a type of Mahogany. This is because Spanish Cedar more pronounced grain lines, making it less brittle. It also keeps the 00-28VS light weight
• Spanish Cedar also has natural properties that make it less vulnerable to bends and warps caused by the high humidity here in Singapore
• It’s obvious, isn’t it? The Martin 00-28VS is built to last and designed for easy maintenance

Now, as promised, the ridiculous $1000 discount
Fact #1: Brand new Martin 00-28VS’s don’t retail in Singapore because of import restrictions. What a pity.
Fact #2: The closest guitar (in terms of specs) that is available here is the Martin 00-42SC John Mayer. It retails at SGD$11, 083.50. Ouch.
Fact #3: Acquiring a 00-28VS from an American online retailer will cost you at least SGD$5, 200. Send your thanks to shipping, insurance and of course, GST for that.
Fact #4: I’m about to give you a massive $1000 discount on that price. Not because “I’m such a sweet guy”. The truth is I deal mostly online. My overheads are low. No gut-spilling rentals. No heart-wrenching inventory management. So I can afford to virtually give away great guitars at excellent prices.
So forget splurging $5200 on a brand new Martin. This one’s available at $4200. And it’s in pristine, mint-condition.
Fact #5: As a gift, you’ll also be getting a mint-condition Original Hardshell Case.
