-Factory Tour 2024 Pre Build Custom- The Martin Custom Shop is the pinnacle of modern Martin, where all products are handmade by around 20 skilled craftsmen, only the most skilled of whom are allowed to work in the vast factory. Pre-Built Custom, which can only be purchased by dealers participating in the Martin Factory Tour. Unlike shop-ordered items, these masterpieces are created using materials carefully selected by experienced custom shop staff who have produced custom models from all over the world, and innovative ideas.From unique idea models to models made using rare and unusual woods that are only available at certain times, these are special works that allow you to experience the design of the custom shop. This is a masterpiece based on the famous "D-28 Authentic 1937" guitar, finished in a beautiful amber tone color with maple binding. The top is made of non-VTS Adirondack spruce, and the back and sides are made of Guatemalan rosewood with beautiful grain and color. The bracing, which is the core of the sound, is made of non-VTS Adirondack spruce in the forward shift scalloped (Authentic 1937) style, and is glued with vintage hide glue, inheriting the specifications of the Authentic. On the other hand, the neck is a MOD-Low Oval shape with an adjustable rod that is satin-finished, and the saddle is a standard short saddle, making it easier to use than the Authentic.The neck shape in particular is recommended for those who find the ``thick V-neck that is unique to the Authentic'' difficult to handle. This is a guitar that allows you to fully enjoy the powerful yet delicate D-28 sound that is unique to the authentic style. The expertly hand-scalloped bracing and hide glue bonding create a truly vibrant body feel. Unlike current models, the Adirondack spruce top is not VTS treated, resulting in a fresher overtone. Enjoy a rich, lustrous tone from low to high positions. The pale amber tone on the top recreates the style of the 1933 model, with a beautiful sunburst color that allows the wood grain to show through. The body, neck, and headstock are luxuriously bound with European flame, creating a modern and stylish look. The Authentic Future specification cannot be ordered with a regular custom order, so it is a special specification that can only be ordered with a pre-built custom. Even when selecting it on-site, this guitar had a particularly brilliant sound and aura. Although it is an expensive instrument, it is worth much more than that. Don't miss this opportunity to purchase it.-SPEC- Top: Adirondack Spruce (Custom Shop Office Selected) Side&Back: Guatemalan Rosewood (Custom Shop Office Selected) Bracing: Adirondack Spruce Scalloped Forward Shifted (Authentic 1937) Neck: Genuine Mahgany (Mod low Oval) Bridge: Black Ebony Fingerboard: Black Ebony (Drop in Saddle) Binding: European Flamed Maple Rosette Style: Style28 Black Maple Fiber Head Plate Decal: Old Style Gold Fingerboard Inlay: Diamonds and Squares Long Scale: 25.4 (645mm) Nut Width: 1 3/4 (44.5 mm) Adhesive: Vintage Hide Glue Finish: Gloss Body w/ Satin Neck Top Color: Ambertone 1933 Truss Rod: Adjustable Tuning Machine: Grover V97-18NA
