This marks the seventh guitar in our ongoing Kingwood Series — and the first to feature a set large enough for a dreadnought body. It’s a powerhouse. Easily the loudest guitar in our shop. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eWhen paired with High-Altitude European (Swiss) Spruce, the Kingwood doesn’t just deliver volume — it also produces a warm, sweet tone when played with a lighter touch.

That means you’ll get a very quick response, shimmering clarity, and a wide dynamic range. Because it’s high-altitude grown, it tends to produce an even tighter grain, giving you extra headroom and a touch more brilliance compared to Sitka or Engelmann. Notes will “pop” with definition, yet still retain warmth.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCocobolo Back and Sides – Cocobolo is dense, like Brazilian rosewood, but with a bit more focus in the low end. Expect deep, piano-like bass, sparkling trebles, and a rich overtone content. It’s powerful and complex, often described as “luxurious” in tone. Compared to Indian rosewood, it gives more immediacy and color—almost a glassy sheen on the highs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOM Body Shape – The OM \/ 000 size balances all that tonal richness with intimacy and balance. You won’t get the same raw low-end boom as a dreadnought, but you will get a beautifully even response across the strings, great for fingerstyle, light flatpicking, and recording.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn short: expect a guitar that’s articulate, responsive, and harmonically rich, with deep, clear lows, shimmering highs, and a very refined midrange presence.

But more importantly, it was built with tone as the priority. Expect a big, powerful voice with chest-thumping bass, rich mids, and a clear, balanced top end that can easily fill a room. Martin doesn’t often build in maple, but when they do, the results are remarkable. Beyond its beauty, maple offers a more sustainable tonewood option—without compromising that signature Martin sound.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eIf you’re after a bold, resonant Jumbo with unmistakable Martin tone and presence, this Custom Shop J-28 is an outstanding choice.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eCustom Shop J28 Style Body\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eHand Selected AAA Big Leaf Flamed Maple (hand-selected)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eSpruce Top\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e1933 Ambertone Finish Complete\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eAntique White Binding\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eFlamed Maple 2 Piece Neck (satin)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eGE Modified Low Oval Neck Profile\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eEbony Fretboard and Bridge\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eDiamonds and Squares Fretboard Inlay\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eDovetail Neck Joint\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eGrover Nickel Tuners\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e14 Fret\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e25.4\" Scale\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e1-3\/4\" Nut Width\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eHerringbone Top Border\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eBig Leaf Maple Headplate\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e1-3\/4\" - 2-1\/8\" - 2-5\/32\" String Spacing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eMedium Phospher Bronze Strings\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e3 Ply Hardshell Case\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eC24-048241\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eUPC #729789703871\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eStock Code #2978782\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Martin Custom Shop Expert","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46341292064945,"sku":null,"price":5999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/9151\/9921\/files\/martin-guitar-custom-shop-j-jumbo-maple-acoustic-guitar-3.jpg?v=1761886248"},{"product_id":"martin-custom-shop-d28-authentic-1937-authorized-martin-custom-shop-expert-dealer-4","title":"Martin Custom Shop D28 Authentic 1937 - Authorized Martin Custom Shop Expert Dealer","description":"\u003cp\u003eCF Martin Custom Shop D28 1937 CE-01\u003cbr\u003eAvailable At Martin Custom Shop Expert Dealers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTobias Music - Chicago Area’s Finest Guitars \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProud of 47 Year Partnership with Martin Guitars\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e0% Financing Available (with approved credit) Contact us for details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProfessionally installed pickup available through our Martin Gold Level Service Center.  Contact us for options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe all new Custom Shop D28 1937.

Jim wasn’t just a master luthier—he was a mentor and a dear friend. Under his guidance, I learned the essentials of guitar repair and construction, skills that became the foundation for building my own instruments starting in 1978. From broken necks and full neck replacements to top reconstructions, body work, and more, Jim taught me the craft with patience and precision. He passed away in 2012, but his influence remains at the heart of everything I build. Over the years, I’ve also studied with respected masters including Charles Fox, Grit Laskin, Tim Teel, Dale Unger, and Roger Siminoff.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMy early instruments were built under the name “Midnight Guitar Works.” After working a full day at the job that paid the bills, I spent my evenings crafting custom electric guitars inspired by classic Strat, LP, and Explorer designs—often with hardware and electronics you couldn’t find on factory models at the time. In the 1990s, as I expanded into mandolins and ukuleles, I rebranded as “Roberts Luthiery.” I’ve had the privilege of building instruments for well-known players as well as lesser-known musicians who’ve become treasured friends.
