The coveted Martin guitar remains timeless. Even pre-war models remain beloved as the ultimate vintage classics, and in recent years, advanced technology has led to numerous reproductions. Among these, the "Authentic Series" boasts exceptional craftsmanship and is highly sought after. Crafted in a custom shop with exceptional craftsmen, these instruments boast the highest quality worthy of modern Martins. This is a used "D-28 Authentic 1937" model, manufactured in 2017, faithfully reproducing the 1937 "D-28." This guitar features a VTS-treated Adirondack spruce top, Madagascar rosewood back and sides, Genuine mahogany neck, ebony fingerboard and bridge, Waverly open-back tuning machines, diamond fingerboard inlays, a painted pickguard, herringbone trim, ivoroid binding, zigzag back strip, steel T-bar rod, and hide glue. The top construction features a 1937-style forward-shifted scalloped X-bracing. The finish is a matte vintage gloss finish for a vintage look. Every detail, including the headstock thickness, back strip, fingerboard thickness, side plate crack prevention, fingerboard end, and bridge shape, has been faithfully reproduced. Even the serial stamp is designed to look exactly like the original, making this a highly sought-after remake guitar. Not only does it look exquisite, but its sound is also unlike anything else available. It delivers the explosive, high-vibration resonance characteristic of Adirondack spruce. The rich, full-bodied tone with a strong fundamental and a rich mid-low range is characteristic of Adirondack guitars. Combined with the benefits of VTS processing, it also achieves excellent touch response and a wide tonal range, suggesting years of experience. The firm, lustrous resonance and clear, unobtrusive tone characteristic of Madagascar rosewood are unlike any other guitar currently available. This guitar boasts a fast response time, a rich tone, and exceptional sound. While there is a crack on the shoulder of the body near the 6th string, it has been carefully glued and patched from the back. There is some paint peeling on the top, but it is in perfect condition for use. Binding peeling, a common feature of Martin ivoroid guitars these days, can be seen in two places on the back waist and shoulder, and on the waist and shoulder of the top near the 1st string, but all have been carefully repaired. Aside from these issues, the guitar remains in excellent condition with no significant signs of use. The neck is in perfect condition, and the guitar has been retuned for comfortable playability, making it surprisingly easy to play. The Authentic Series recreates the essence of the Golden Era with modern technology. This used, high-quality Martin guitar, packed with the attention to detail that only a Custom Shop guitar can offer, is in excellent condition. It comes with the original hard case.
