Vintage Tones, Modern Playability

Professional-Grade Components

With the Martin OM-28 Modern Deluxe you get a fantastic combination of vintage guitar design combined with the peak of modern construction techniques.

From the tonewoods used, down to the bridge pins and tuning pegs, every inch of this guitar represents a new chapter in the history of Martin Guitars.

Excellent Tonewood Pairing

Pairing Spruce and Rosewood together revisits arguably the most popular tonewood combination of the best part of the past century.

These tonewoods work together perfectly to produce a sound that's rich, clear and bright, with a complex resonance and plenty of rich overtones. In addition to this, the natural properties of the Spruce top produce a consistent sound that's ideal for any playstyle, making it one of the most versatile tonewood combinations available.

Modern Upgrades

While the sound this guitar produces may well be exquisite in its own right, this isn't the only thing about the Martin OM-28 Modern Deluxe that will turn your head.

Sporting a set of stylish gold frets, gold open gear tuners, a pearl-inlaid 30s style script headstock logo, a lightweight 2-way Titanium truss rod, Liquidmetal bridge pins, and even a new assymetrical neck profile, this high-performance folk guitar is a beauty to behold.

Vintage Appointments

Fully complimenting the modern appointments you'll find some familiar Martin appointments. Included in these are the Spruce VTS top, VTS Adirondack spruce braces, dovetail neck joint, and even natural protein glues used in the construction.

If it's that vintage Martin tone you want, combined with modern playability, then make your next purchase a Modern Deluxe series guitar.

Martin's VTS

Thanks to innovations developed by the R&D team at Martin, achieving the same tone as a vintage acoustic has never been more accessible.

This is largely down to their fantastic Vintage Tone System (VTS) - a unique Torrefaction process that's used to age the guitar's tonewoods prior to construction. The end result is akin to what you'd usually get with a naturally-aged and well-played guitar - which is exactly what you get with the Martin OM-28 Modern Deluxe.
