Ben Howard's Guitars
This Martin D-28 is Ben's main stage guitar which he uses for all songs in his C G combo tuning. The Martin is seen throughout the live performance.
Ben is featured on Freshman Guitar's site where they say that while each guitar is unique, the SONGDLH is the closest to Ben's actual guitar. They also share this video of him playing the Freshman FA300D which is discontinued. However the models closest to this are the Songwriter series which feature all solid wood and are of the same construction that being solid spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides. The current FA400D features a body made of solid rosewood and sounds different.
