Burlington, MA – Audience members who have seen Dan Tyminski play with either his own band or with Alison Krauss and Union Station have undoubtedly noticed his much loved 1946 Martin D-28 guitar. Apprehensive about continuing to take the guitar on the road, Tyminski teamed up with the Martin Guitar Company to construct the new Martin D-28 Dan Tyminski Custom Edition.
The official unveiling of the new D-28 took place at the Summer NAMM (National Association of Music Merchants) conference in Nashville, TN July 17 – 19. Tyminski joins a distinguished group of guitarists such as Eric Clapton, Johnny Cash, and Woody Guthrie who also have signature models. Each of the Dan Tyminski Custom Edition guitars will have an interior label that is personally signed by Tyminski and numbered in succession.

The album has also been hailed in No Depression, Billboard, American Songwriter, The Washington Post, The Chicago Sun Times, Country Weekly and The Dallas Morning News.
