"The fall tour of 2001 was an exception when he appeared with a Martin "negative". Martin had made a special HD-28 for Acoustic Guitar Magazine’s anniversary giveaway a year ago or so. It was designed like a photographic negative: the top was black and everything else, that would normally be black or dark, was made white. Dylan saw it and asked Martin to make him one, only with a duel white pick guard on both sides of the sound hole."
