One of the best 1937 D-28 faithfully reproduced
Martin / 2015 D-28 Authentic 1937 VTS
The "Authentic" series reproduces vintage Martin guitars from the 1930s to 1940s, known as the Golden Era.
The D-28 Authentic 1937 VTS is the pinnacle of today's acoustic guitars, with details such as the glue and T-Bar rods that were made to look just like the guitars of that era, and is sure to please Martin freaks and vintage enthusiasts alike.
This 2015 model is from the beginning of the introduction of VTS.
The top of the guitar is made of Adirondack spruce, which is the same material used in those days.
Madagascar rosewood is used for the side backs.
The back is quarter-sawn and has a unique cream color with both exotic and powerful wood grain and elegant and supple wood grain, giving the guitar a strong presence.
On the other hand, the sides of the body are quarter-sawn with dense grain.
The gap between the two is very impressive.
The bracing is the same forward-shifted scalloped bracing used in 1937.
The dynamic sound of this model, which can be called a D-28 of the highest class, is wonderful, and you can fully enjoy the sound with full of bounciness and volume.
The sound is particularly impressive in that each note has a luster, and even when the strings are plucked lightly, a rich tone spreads over the place.
Even if you usually play only chord strokes, try playing arpeggios with a pick. It will change your world.
From the selected wood, the construction, the playability to the sound,
The guitar is a great guitar, packed with Martin's history and technology.
