The Story

D-28 Authentic 1937 Aged Vintage Gloss Dreadnought

This Martin D-28 Authentic 1937 Aged is an even further elevated Authentic model - we've been waiting for "Aged" Martins for awhile, and they've finally delivered. The limited edition D-28 Authentic 1937 Aged not only features the VTS wood-aging system, hand shaped braces, and all hide glue construction, but it's been carefully aged inside and out for an appearance that matches it's tone. A perfect replacement for that out-of-reach pre-war dreadnought!

Includes: Hardshell Case, Paperwork
