Martins Vintage Tone System The 00-28 Modern Deluxe allows you to experience that deliciously classic Martin tone as soon as you start playing. Its spruce top has been carefully crafted with Martins Vintage Tone System (VTS) producing tones that sound as though theyve aged over many years. This model proves that you don’t have to buy a vintage guitar to experience the esteemed wondrous tone of a classic Martin. The VTS involves a thermochemical treatment which removes any water at a high temperature leaving the wood extremely dry superbly stable and more importantly with that sublime vintage sound. Incredible stability In order to deliver an exceptional clear tone and sustain a comfortable playing experience it is important to have a sturdy and durable structure. The 00-28 provides the utmost stability from the inside. Within the spruce and mahogany body there is scalloped X-bracing which offers robustness and resonance. The scalloped shape of the bracing means parts have been scooped out allowing the spruce top to vibrate freely and this results in a more dynamic sound that retains structural reliability. Scalloped bracing is an enticing feature particularly on Martin guitars as it takes us back to their “Golden Era” when all their steel-string guitars featured this sturdy and resonant brace shape. Such instruments are still held with such high regard now and so you can trust that the 00-28 has been constructed with history experience and an abundance of knowledge behind it. The benefits of such an innovative brace do not stop there. An X-bracing pattern offers an exceptionally sturdy structure that accommodates high-tension steel strings. Tune up and play without worrying about any potential guitar body tragedies X-bracing is strong enough to withstand any amount of pressure.
