The OM-28 Modern Deluxe is a new take on Martin Vintage. This guitar is packed with custom features and modern technology that you have to see, feel, and hear for yourself. The vintage appointments include a spruce VINTAGE TONE SYSTEM® (VTS) top, a 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, stylish gold frets, gold open-gear tuners, and a unique 1930s style script logo inlaid in pearl on the headstock. Some ultra-modern features include Liquidmetal® bridge pins with red dots and a composite carbon fiber bridgeplate that boosts volume. And we’ve included a new neck shape that is slightly asymmetrical for maximum hand comfort up and down the fretboard. This guitar is anything but standard.

The New Modern Deluxe Series

Martin's Fred Greene talks about the new Modern Deluxe Series and its creation.

“All in all, the OM-28E Modern Deluxe does exactly what Martin set out to do. It doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it carefully considers every aspect of a classic design, making modifications where it makes sense. For any player looking for an OM with a little something extra, this is definitely a guitar worth considering.”
