A few finish bumps and bruises on an otherwise great guitar. Includes a molded Martin Hardshell Case. Excellent playability with low action and the neck is straight. A fantastic sounding guitar that is loud and responsive – everything you’d expect from a 37 year old D-35.

Description

Condition Specifics: Surprisingly little fret wear for its age and there is no sign that it was ever refretted. This Martin does not appear to have undergone any structural repairs. There is an output jack/strap button installed but there are no electronics. The guitar came to us with its binding partially missing and large portions hanging off (not at all uncommon for Martins of this age). Our local Martin authorized repair center did a wonderful job of replacing and reattaching the binding. There is a fair amount of finish checking especially on the back and some finish missing. The spots on the back of the neck appear to be an attempt at finish repair. It looks worse than it feels in the hand while playing.

A distinctive three-piece back and antique white binding around the fingerboard set it apart. Expressive quarter-inch straight bracing gives it balance and power for any situation. Premium East Indian rosewood, spruce, and a timeless Dreadnought shape have made it the choice for pickers, strummers, and players from Johnny Cash to Seth Avett.
