For generations, the D-28 has been the benchmark against which all dreadnoughts are measured, earning its reputation as the definitive \"tone cannon\" of the acoustic world. From bluegrass stages and recording studios to singer-songwriters and touring professionals, the D-28's unmistakable blend of power, balance, and projection has made it one of the most revered instruments ever built. Available now at Haggerty’s Music, this authentically aged Martin Custom Shop D-28 1937 captures the spirit of the most sought-after pre-war Martins while delivering the reliability and craftsmanship expected from a modern instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe D-28 Authentic 1937was created as Martin's painstaking tribute to the legendary pre-war examples that have become the holy grail for collectors and performers alike. Every aspect of this guitar was designed to recreate the look, feel, and sound of an original 1937 D-28, from its historically accurate body dimensions and Authentic 1937 neck profile to its forward-shifted X-bracing pattern. The Adirondack spruce top undergoes Martin's proprietary Vintage Tone System (VTS) treatment, a specialized torrefaction process that replicates decades of natural aging, unlocking the responsiveness, warmth, and complexity typically found only in vintage instruments. Combined with premium Guatemalan rosewood back and sides, the result is a guitar that feels remarkably open and alive from the very first note.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eTonally, this instrument delivers everything players dream of when they imagine a world-class pre-war dreadnought. The bass response is deep, authoritative, and piano-like, while the midrange remains rich and articulate. The trebles ring with clarity and sweetness, creating a perfectly balanced voice that excels in virtually any musical setting. Flatpickers will appreciate its immense headroom and projection, while fingerstyle players will discover surprising nuance and responsiveness. Whether you're performing bluegrass, folk, country, Americana, singer-songwriter material, or recording in the studio, this guitar offers the dynamic range and tonal sophistication to handle it all effortlessly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eAdding even more character is Martin's expertly aged finish treatment, which gives the guitar the appearance and feel of a treasured vintage heirloom that has been lovingly played for decades. Paired with premium appointments including an ebony fingerboard and bridge, Waverly open-back tuners, and a molded hardshell case, this used 2020 Custom Shop D-28 Authentic 1937 VTS represents an extraordinary opportunity to own one of the finest modern interpretations of Martin's most celebrated acoustic guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures \/ Specs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHighlights\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrientation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Right-Handed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElectronics:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBracing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Authentic 1937 Forward Shifted X-Brace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutaway:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dreadnought (D-28 Authentic 1937)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Adirondack Spruce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aged Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop Color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vintage Toner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack \u0026amp; Sides Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Guatemalan Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack Configuration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two-Piece Back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack \u0026amp; Sides Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBracing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Authentic 1937 Forward Shifted X-Brace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grained Ivoroid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRosette:\u003c\/strong\u003e Style 28 Multi-Stripe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e Authentic 1937\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Taper:\u003c\/strong\u003e Authentic Vintage Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.794\" at 1st Fret, 1.042\" at 9th Fret\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25.4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.75\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard Inlay:\u003c\/strong\u003e Abalone Diamonds \u0026amp; Squares Long Pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard Binding:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard Radius:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard Spacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.31\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vintage Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dovetail Neck Joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadstock:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid with Square Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadstock Binding:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadplate Inlay:\u003c\/strong\u003e C.F.
