Description
New Martin D-28 Authentic 1937 in stock!
Perhaps the most revered vintage D-28s are the ones created in 1937 with forward shifted hand-scalloped X-bracing, Adirondack red spruce soundboard and a 1 3/4″ neck width. This addition to the Authentic series is a recreation of the original 1937 model offered with Madagascar rosewood back and sides.
The new Martin Vintage Tone System (VTS) uses a unique recipe that isbased on the historic torrefaction system. The VTS acts much like a timemachine in which Martin can target certain time periods and age thetop/braces to that era. This focused method allows Martin’s craftsmenand women to recreate not only the pleasing visual aesthetics of avintage guitar, but also reproduce the special tones previously reservedfor vintage instruments.
