This Martin has received all the maintenance due its vintage, benefitting from a fresh neck reset and a new carved and compensated bone saddle, refretted with vintage-spec slender fretwire. Tonewoods include solid East Indian rosewood back and sides paired with a solid Sitka spruce top, mahogany neck, and ebony fingerboard and bridge.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nUnique to the D-35 among Martin's dreadnought body guitars, the instrument features lighter 1\/4\" bracing, as opposed to the 5\/16\" bracing seen on its counterpart, the D-28. This feature, combined with the D-35's unique three-piece rosewood back, delivers a sound that is notably lively and articulate. The instrument offers tons of projection, with Martin's signature piano-like clarity. The overarching tone is sweet and bold sound, with a high volume ceiling. Weighing 4lbs 11oz, this D-35 has been professionally setup here at Mike \u0026amp; Mike’s Guitar Bar with 12-53 strings and easy-playing action.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nNeck Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n-Wood: Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e\r\n-Shape: Soft V, measuring .900” 1st fret, 1.015” 9th fret\u003cbr\u003e\r\n-Fretboard: Ebony, dot inlay\u003cbr\u003e\r\n-Frets: Slender (fresh refret), no wear\u003cbr\u003e\r\n-Scale Length: 25.4”\u003cbr\u003e\r\n-Nut: 1 11\/16”\u003cbr\u003e\r\n-Tuners: Martin-branded, Schaller-made\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nBody Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n-Wood: Sitka spruce, Indian rosewood\u003cbr\u003e\r\n-Bridge: Ebony, compensated bone saddle\u003cbr\u003e\r\n-Plastics: Original pickguard (reseated)\u003cbr\u003e\r\n-Serialization: Stamp on heel block dates to ‘81\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nThis Martin is crack-free, with light playwear consistent with careful use including pick wear across the soundhole, some minor dings on the body as a whole, and faint buckle rash on the back.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nThe original molded hardshell case is included.","brand":"Martin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44511289934080,"sku":"434304","price":3499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/4437\/4714\/products\/medium_b80b677b-23d2-4c28-9975-888f3f193866.jpg?v=1751554866","url":"https:\/\/mmguitarbar.com\/products\/1981-martin-d-35-vintage-dreadnought-acoustic-guitar-w-case","provider":"Mike \u0026 Mike's Guitar Bar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
