Martin produced a series of guitars for a musical instrument store in new york. At the suggestion of Henry, a musical instrument store, he began to design guitars with grand pianos for singers. Because the piano is unprecedented in size, it is named after a British warship, referred to as D-type.

After that, we made 1 1 1, 222,333 with spruce and mahogany as the piano body. But in fact, the company began to produce Martin brand 12 pianos in 193 1 year. At that time, the D- 1 and D-2 models were the predecessors of the later D- 18 and D-28. D-shape has almost become synonymous with guitar, and the shape of the piano body has become the standard of acoustic guitar.
