The Martin 1937 Authentic D-28 VTS is a breathtaking recreation of the golden-era dreadnoughts that built the foundation of modern acoustic music. Crafted with a torrefied Adirondack spruce top paired with stunning Guatemalan rosewood back and sides, this pre-owned powerhouse delivers deep, thunderous lows, rich overtones, and a crystalline projection that only vintage-aged tonewoods can achieve. Martin's proprietary Vintage Tone System (VTS) process expertly ages the top to replicate the broken-in resonance and golden amber aesthetic of an instrument built nearly a century ago.
Featuring an authentic 1937 neck shape with a comfortable hand-fit taper and a smooth ebony fingerboard, this instrument offers effortless playability for flatpickers and strummers alike. Subtle Stage 1 aging gives the nitrocellulose finish a gently weathered, played-in look and feel without compromising structural integrity, complemented by authentic appointments like hide-glue construction and forward-shifted scalloped X-bracing. Complete with its original hardshell case (OHSC), this exquisite used Martin dreadnought stands ready to anchor any studio session or live performance with legendary tone.
