A guitar that deserves a seal of approval in terms of looks, sound, and condition. A used "D-28 Rich Robinson" has arrived!!
Based on the 1954 D-28 that Rich Robinson himself used for many years and created numerous songs for the American rock band "The Black Crowes," which gained popularity with its unique musical style rooted in a wide range of genres including psychedelic, blues, and Southern rock, this instrument boasts an overwhelming vintage feel, with its amber-colored finish, aged finish, and faithful reproduction of scratches, dents, and even weather checking.
The crisp attack and tight resonance obtained from the rear-shifted non-scalloped bracing structure are characteristic of the 1950s, offering a sound distinct from the current lineup's expansive sustain. The nut width is 42.9mm, and the moderately thick neck shape provides an excellent grip.
A truss rod is also included, allowing for precise adjustments. Regarding the condition, as it is an aged model, it is difficult to determine the exact location of damage, but there are no cracks or other damage to the wood, and there are no particularly noticeable signs of wear.
The neck remains straight, and the current string height at the 12th fret is approximately 2.3mm on the 6th string side and approximately 1.8mm on the 1st string side, which is an ideal setting and provides excellent playability. The saddles are approximately 3.5mm high from the top of the bridge on both the 6th and 1st string sides, allowing for ample room for future adjustments.
Original hardshell case included.
