Martin / D-28 Authentic 1937 Aged Guatemalan Rosewood [Real Photo] Martin Acoustic Guitar [S/N:2745216]

Reproduction of the Golden Era period! Authentic series!

The D-28 from that time was reproduced by Martin's custom shop!

The top of the body is made of Adirondack spruce with VTS (VINTAGE TONE SYSTEM) and colored with vintage toner.

The sides and back are made of Guatemalan rosewood, which is a well-known alternative to Brazilian rosewood (Jacaranda).

The top bracing is made from Adirondack spruce with VTS, and is hand-scalloped X-bracing by custom shop craftsmen with forward shift. *From 1938, it will be rear shift.

The beefy Genie mahogany neck (close to V-Shape) with a nut width of 1-3/4 inches (approximately 44.5 mm) has a long scale of 25.4 inches and an ebony fingerboard.

The pegs are Waverly open backs with aged butterbean knobs.

Adopts herringbone trim, glued dovetail neck joint, steel T-bar rod, cow bone nut and saddle.

The aged finish (removal scratches, paint sagging, weather cracks, paint baldness, etc.) makes it look as if it has been through many battles, giving it a dignified look as well as sound.

The withered sound resonates comfortably, as if it has been played for many years. With its sturdy bass, balanced midrange, and harsh highs, this is a product that once again makes you realize the high quality of Martin Custom Shop!
