Martin's Standard Series guitars have set the tone for about 200 years and will continue to do so for the next 200 years. Here you'll find all the iconic models that have defined Martin as the premier brand and the "acoustic flattop" in general. And there's really nothing standard about the Standard Series; every guitar is handcrafted in the USA and in Martin's long tradition. Whether you go for an 18 or a 40, an OO or a D, they all have that traditional, dry, woody character that is so unmistakable to that signature Martin sound.
The D-28 Modern Deluxe is a new take on Martin Vintage. This guitar is packed with custom features and modern technology that you must see, feel and hear for yourself. The vintage finish includes a spruce VINTAGE TONE SYSTEM® (VTS) top, dovetail neck joint and natural protein glue construction that give it the rich, fully aged Martin tone that has inspired generations. The look is unlike anything in our production line to date with European flamed maple binding with herringbone trim, stylish gold frets, gold open-gear tuners, and a unique 1930s style script logo inlaid in mother of pearl on the headstock. Some state-of-the-art features include Liquidmetal® bridge pins with red dots and a composite carbon-fiber bridge plate that increases volume. And we have a new neck shape that is slightly asymmetrical for maximum hand comfort on and along the fingerboard. This guitar is anything but standard.
Fantastic guitar!
