It's strung, and tuned to pitch for precise string tension emulation. An incredible process that's been a major breakthrough over the last decade. This is because the machine's meticulous attention to detail identifies exactly what needs to be done to bring you perfect fretwork. It's an innovative machine that brings you flawless results.

Traditional and tone enhancing. The Martin 000-28EC features a real bone nut. This produces incredible resonance and sustain. It also brings a vintage touch to your 000-28EC's authentic aesthetic. Additionally, a bone nut is a luxury addition to acoustic instruments, it brings balance to your tone whilst being long-lasting, and superbly durable. You'll also benefit from bone's natural ability to self lubricate. Why will you benefit? Well, it keeps you in tune for longer periods of time, as well as enhancing your tone - truly sublime.
