Martin D-28 Authentic 1937 - aged natural vintage gloss
Perhaps the most revered vintage D-28s are the ones created in 1937 with Adirondack Red Spruce forward shifted hand-scalloped X-bracing, Adirondack Red Spruce soundboard and a 1 3/4" neck width.
If you’re looking for a new guitar that looks and sounds like you’ve been playing it for 80 years, you have just found your holy grail of guitars : the MARTIN GUITAR D-28 Authentic 1937 Aged acoustic guitar is a recreation of the original 1937 Dreadnought offered with Madagascar Rosewood back and sides. Martin’s new Vintage Tone System (VTS) is employed for the top and braces.
The Martin Vintage Tone System (VTS) uses a unique recipe that is based on the historic torrefaction system. The VTS acts much like a time machine in which Martin can target certain time periods and age the top/braces to that era. This focused method allows Martin’s craftsmen and women to recreate not only the pleasing visual aesthetics of a vintage guitar, but also reproduce the special tones previously reserved for vintage instruments.
