Description
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 the Holy Grail. 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.
Cosmetic Condition: Intentionally "aged" at the factory to give it that slightly "worn-in" vintage look. Various little nicks, dents & dings; scratches, weather checking & some mild finish wear.
Neck: Soft V-shaped mahogany neck with cream side-dots. Ebony fingerboard with abalone diamond inlays. Frets show just a tiny bit of wear, but have plenty of life in them. Aged Waverly Butterbean nickel tuners. 1 3/4" width bone nut; 25.4" scale length. Neck is straight & plays great up & down the fretboard.
Body: Double-bound, 14-fret dreadnought in aged natural finish. Solid Adirondak spruce top with Herringbone purfling. Ebony bridge with bone saddle. Tortoise pickguard & multi-ring rosette. Solid Madagascar rosewood back & sides with zig zag center strip. There are no electronics & the guitar weighs 4 lbs 8.1 oz.
