This 1974 Martin D-35 is just into the shop on trade! It's all original and crack free, bearing only the expected playwear and mild lacquer checking. The sound is wide open and warm, with the prototypical D-35 boom in the low end. This is a fantastic buy for a player who does a little of everything (fingerpicking, flatpicking, strumming) and wants big, full tone without an aggressive right hand attack. The action sits at 3/32" on the bass side, and just over 2/32" on the treble side. The saddle is low; and while the guitar plays nicely now, there's not enough saddle height to lower the action further. Priced with its original Martin thermoplastic case.
