Three from 1938 - Martin D18, D28, Gibson Advanced Jumbo

[@G_Demolished]

Those old D18s are sweeter than a cup of hot cocoa after shoveling the driveway.

[@billdedrick1914]

That 38' D28 is a monster

[@jessd1952]

Gibson takes the cake for me.

[@stephenfogle319]

Awesome playing and great comparison of three stellar guitars!!

[@greekflatpicker]

Holy grail guitars. Thanks for the video

[@Trdbrglr75]

I’m guessing on value here, but that’s the most beautiful $100k could ever sound.

[@davidlduncanjr4154]

Very cool comparison

[@peterpicker850]

Wow. Unreal. That AJ seems unbelievably loud.

[@LoukaSound]

I read that Advanced Jumbos back then were made with East Indian Rosewood. Is that the case or is it Brazilian? Nice playing!!

[@philkinzer6486]

Both Martins sounded deeper to me. Thought the Gibson would be the bassiest of the bunch

[@brandonpiper3763]

All amazing instruments!!! Nicely done. What was your favorite Chill?

[@chillmonroe2672]

D28 for me but no losers here

[@billdedrick1914]

Unreal tone/sound from each.I prefer the 38' D28 with the D18 2nd.....Is that a 1.5mm TS? Where do you get them?

[@cressdiligent]

What was that first little song you played. Very nice little tune

[@ansleythestewart]

Is this the one Mass Street was about to list for sale? (the 28) If so, this is the one I almost bought a few years back from Roody. Did you end up with it?

[@chillmonroe2672]

Yessir, she’s found a new home. Who’s Roody?

[@ansleythestewart]

@@chillmonroe2672 Wild. Roody was that guitar's second (and longest) owner, and who I would've been buying it from. How much of the history of the guitar do you know? It's a pretty neat story if you're not familiar. I did a bunch of research and tracked down the original owners' current family and stuff, and they were really nice - even sharing stories and photos they knew of it from back in the day.

[@chillmonroe2672]

Dang dude, I’d love to hear more about that. I sent you a DM on the instagrams 🙏

[@robertwilson6144]

I thought the AJ had more midrange and oh that Gibson growl on the low end.

[@dantheman348]

Put some phosphor bronze on that d28 and it will sound like heaven with that gibson with 80/20 playing them together with a pickin buddy

[@los_rubos]

Gibson has that nasally woody tone compared to the more open Martins. The D18 hits that middle ground for me

[@billdedrick1914]

what 80/20? Martin or D'Addario?

[@Bluestar-1969]

Ear candy!
