Lightbulb Martin Custom Shop D-28 Authentic 1937 Aged w/ Madagascar Rosewood

Martin D-28 Authentic 1937 Aged w/ Madagascar Rosewood &
Hide Glue Construction OHSC


Serial no: 2293399 dates it to 2019 production year

Lovingly made by Martin Custom Shop Experts in Nazareth, PA

This is hands down the best vintage style martin that you can ever buy.
It has fat trebles and warm tone timbre through all the registers. It lets you play bluegrass music with ease and an impressive even response!
You’ll be hard pressed to find another model that sounds sweet like this - whether it is a Collings, Santa Cruz, Bourgeois, Pre War Guitars, Atkin etc.


If you’re looking for a new guitar that looks and sounds like you’ve been playing it for 80 years, you have just found your holy grail of guitars.

The Aged version of the D-28 Authentic 1937 includes all of the goodness that comes with Martin’s Authentic Series instruments, like hide glue construction and hand-scalloped X bracing.

Plus, the VINTAGE TONE SYSTEM® (VTS) that ages the wood to replicate the sound of a vintage Martin.

The result is a tactile, visual, and auditory experience that will transport you all the way back to the 1930s.

Note:
This is made with Madagascar Rosewood. Not to be confused with the current series which are either made of Indian Rosewood or Guatemalan Rosewood back and sides.

*This is the HEAVILY AGED version, not to be confused with Stage wise aging that Martin is currently offering. I've misplaced the hang tags/ case candy.

Ships in Original Martin Custom Shop Case.

----
Price $6999 Shipped CONUS (Paypal F&F)
No Trades please!

Ships Worldwide at buyers expense

Happy to show/ play the guitar on FaceTime, Zoom etc.

Martin doesn't designate "master grade" woods.
