Acoustic Guitar – The Making of a D-28

Martin D-28Acoustic Guitar Magazine has an article in the May 2007 issue which follows the production of a Martin D-28 guitar through the production process. It starts with the Martin wood storage area and proceeds through the many stages, showing the combination of hands-on woodworking and high tech automation now in use by C.F. Martin.

Especially for guitarists and guitar aficionados who have never had the opportunity to tour the Martin factory in Nazareth, PA, the Acoustic Guitar slide show that accompanies the article online may be the next best thing.
