Be careful with all of this because history is very different now that Martin has "re-imagined", "modern deluxed", "GE'd", "Authentic'd", etc etc. Now we have versions of the D-40, 41, 42, and 45 that have different bracing in different positions.

In the pic below are my '93 D-41, '12 D-45, and '97 D-45V. Only the D-45V remains and I'm sure it's because my ears prefer the tone of FSSB. AND.. since the latest D-41's and D-45's now have FSSB, I'm quite sure I would prefer their sound (but not their necks or 1 3/4" nut) over their predecessors. Bill.

D41 vs D45 Build Quality. So in years past, (prior to 2018), there were some differences in the builds of the D41, and D45 other than the obvious cosmetics. The only difference I know of now is the 41 has a satin neck, and the 45 is gloss. But from a tone and quality perspective, they now appear exactly the same.

The D-41 always seems to sound very "sunny" and lively to my ear. The D-45s sound similar, but they seem to get more and more complex as they grow older. Not that all Martin's don't, but I would say the 45s are very lush and rich in general, the 41 maybe as more clarity, less business, and very, very pretty. I owned a '93 D-41 for about 5 yrs

And our brains are not good at remembering the difference between guitars. If you had your straight braced standard position D-28 guitar in the same room with the new D-28, you would probably notice the new one has more bass. The D-41 would be expected to have more bass than the new D-28 or the D-28 you have.

In short, with this Reimagined D-41, Martin has succeeded in creating an instrument worthy of its 185-year heritage. Not only that, but in this particular dreadnought model it has built a guitar that deserves to take its place with legendary vintage examples of the breed.

Jan 31, 2018 #1. I always liked the neck inlay on the D-41 more than the D-42 and was never interested in the extra bling on the 45. I owned a 41 and was talked into buying a 42 because of the forward shifted bracing. And i felt it did sound better. But now my question is if I or anyone is interested in the reimagined 40-series Martin, I

Overview. Perhaps the most iconic of all dreadnought guitars, the Martin D-28 has seen some changes over its long line of production, but by and large remains very true to the original design that drew in players like Paul McCartney, Neil Young, and Elvis Presley to name a few. Its large, but controlled low-end response fills any room while the

The difference is that the D-41 has abalone hexagon position markers on the fretboard, while the D-42 has the old fashioned diamond and snowflake inlays. I think the D-42 may have abalone trim around the back as well as the top. But other than that, there's no difference. # 3. 12-26-2013, 09:09 PM. veryzer.

The D41 is straight braced, the D41sp has scalloped, forward shifted braces, as already stated. However, the D42 has a low profile neck and the D41sp has a modified V neck. Tonally, the D41 should be closer to a D28, and the D41sp should be closer to a D42. In my experience, the forward shifted, scalloped bracing tends to be more projective

Feb 06, 2010 #11. At a glance. The 45 has abalone around the sides, back and borders the fretboard. The 41 borders the top only and does not go around the fretboard. The 42 goes around the fretboard but does not border the sides and back. There are other differences but the are easiest to spot. pauljcat.

D28 is more direct with less overtones due to its straight bracing. D41 has scalloped bracing (like an HD-28) and in general more of a low-end bloom, plus abalone (which has some impact on tone as well)... more of a "classic" Martin tone. D35 has straight, but lighter bracing, and a three-piece back, giving a more scooped sound with a big low-end.
