The C. F. Martin D-28 Authentic 1937 is a re-creation of an iconic instrument, the pre-WW2 Martin D-28. Production of these guitars was disrupted by the onset of war, and changes in supply chains rippled through post war production. This example was built during 2014 in Nazareth, Pennsylvania pairing an Adirondack Spruce top with Madagascar Rosewood for the back, sides and headplate, Mahogany for the neck, and Ebony for the bridge and unbound fingerboard.
Just in, a new C. F. Martin D-28 Authentic 1937 Steel String Acoustic Guitar. These are based on the most sought after pre-WW2 D-28 models. These have hand-scalloped forward shifted X braces and Adirondack spruce tops. Madagascar Rosewood takes the place of Brazilian for the back and sides, with mahogany necks and ebony fingerboard and bridge
C.F. Martin & Co. have introduced their second in the Authentic series of instruments with the Martin Guitars 000-18 Authentic 1937 model. This series is absolutely meticulous in its recreation of the classic pre-war Martin guitar designs. From the Adirondack spruce top & bracing, to the Brazilian rosewood peghead overlay, fossilized ivory nut & saddle, hide glue dovetail neck joint, oval buttoned Waverly tuners and T-rod neck reinforcement … this as close as it gets to the real thing without getting in your time machine!

I came to Twelfth Fret with an all original 1967 Gretsch Chet Atkins Tennessean which I had purchased online. The guitar was barely playable, would not tune and was just a very expensive disappointment. After a consultation with Scott, he came up with a plan to see if this guitar could be brought back to life. After great communication, Scott put his skillful hand to work and gave me back one of the greatest guitars I have ever played!
I went from totally disappointed with this guitar, to it being one of my favorites. I don’t know how Scott did it, but unbelievable. Great communication throughout the process, incredibly skillful work, and most of all just a real desire on Scott’s behalf to bring this thing back to life as best he could. I went from having totally given up, to very boastful to own this guitar. Completely blown away.
Absolutely no hesitation bringing any future projections to Scott and the rest of the staff. Thank you so much!
