Sitka Spruce is the common choice for top wood on most acoustic guitars. Offering combination of strength and elasticity which translates into a broad dynamic range, Sitka Spruce has a punchy direct sound, yielding crisp articulation and allowing for versatile playing, from dynamic strumming, flatpicking or fingerpicking.

The Martin VTS (Vintage Tone System) is a proprietary torrefaction process. VTS acts like a time machine. It allows Martin’s team to recreate not only the warm visual aesthetics of a vintage guitar, but also reproduce the tones previously reserved for vintage instruments.

Sinker Mahogany comes old growth trunks that were under water for so long that some mineral content penetrated the wood. This changes the structure of the Mahogany to become slightly heavier and harder, to produce amazing voices in acoustic guitars.
