Martin D-28 Authentic 1937 VTS w/OHSC

Description

Many discerning guitarists instantly name the D-28 as their all-time favorite Martin; it is the standard to which all acoustic guitars are compared. Affectionately dubbed the “tone cannon,” the D-28 deploys iconic rich tone and powerful projection that’s perfect for stage and studio. For the D-28 Authentic 1937 VTS, Martin has reimagined this timeless classic, blending the enduring legacy of the guitar with the company’s latest innovations. Inspired by the company’s dreadnoughts from the 1930s and ’40s, the D-28 Authentic 1937 VTS features a body profile that has been subtly reshaped for historical accuracy, along with other refinements that make it one of the most scrumptiously playable acoustic guitars in our Guitar Gallery. Of course, only the finest solid tonewoods are used: Guatemalan rosewood back and sides, and an Adirondack spruce top treated to Martin’s proprietary VTS aging process. The net result is a superb instrument with a comfortable, played-in feel, knock-’em-dead looks, and a glorious vintage voice. This is your opportunity to own that very special D-28 you’ve been dreaming about.
