Martin D-28 Authentic 1937 VTS Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar Natural

The Martin D-28 Authentic 1937 VTS captures everything players love about pre-war Martin dreadnoughts: huge projection, deep low end, rich overtones, and an incredibly responsive feel. Built with vintage-inspired construction methods and premium tonewoods, this is the kind of guitar that immediately feels alive in your hands.

The Adirondack spruce top features Martin’s Vintage Tone System (VTS), giving the guitar the open, seasoned response players usually associate with well-played vintage instruments. Combined with solid Guatemalan rosewood back and sides, the result is a powerful dreadnought voice with strong bass, crisp articulation, and exceptional dynamic range.

This guitar works beautifully for bluegrass flatpickers, singer-songwriters, recording artists, and players who want a traditional Martin sound with outstanding touch sensitivity. Whether you dig in with a heavy pick or play lightly with your fingers, the D-28 Authentic responds with clarity and authority.

Features:

  • Solid Adirondack spruce VTS top
  • Solid Guatemalan rosewood back and sides
  • Authentic 1937 neck profile
  • Ebony fingerboard and bridge
  • Scalloped X-bracing
  • Hide glue construction with dovetail neck joint
  • Waverly open-gear tuners
  • Bone nut and long bone saddle
  • Includes Martin hardshell case

Players love the D-28 Authentic series because it delivers the feel and response of an old golden-era Martin without the unpredictability or cost of a vintage original. The bass stays full without getting muddy, and the top-end cuts through beautifully in ensemble settings or studio mixes.
