Description

Martin D-35 1969 Acoustic Guitar – an absolute powerhouse of a guitar – it delivers an incredibly rich and resonant tone, paired with a distinctive vintage character that makes it truly special.

The Martin D-35, along with the iconic D-28, stands among the most legendary dreadnought guitars ever made. Countless renowned musicians have relied on the D-35 for its versatility, power, and unmistakable Martin sound. As the ultimate example of a 14-fret dreadnought, it has set the standard for dreadnought guitars worldwide. The classic combination of a solid spruce top and rosewood back and sides is highly regarded in both studio and live settings, thanks to its naturally balanced tonal profile—tight, deep basses, clear and articulate trebles, and a warm, full midrange.

From the very first strum, this guitar reveals its immense sonic depth. The basses are powerful and expansive, providing a strong foundation without ever becoming muddy. The trebles ring with crystalline clarity, cutting through the mix while maintaining warmth and smoothness. The midrange offers a rich, woody presence, adding warmth and complexity to chords and fingerpicked passages alike. The projection is remarkable, effortlessly filling a room with a bold yet well-balanced sound. This is the kind of guitar that inspires, whether played softly with delicate nuance or strummed with full force—every note carries a sense of depth and authenticity that only a well-aged vintage Martin can provide.

Visually, this D-35 wears its history proudly. It has been well played and well loved over the years, showing honest wear from decades of making music. It has undergone some necessary repairs, including glued cracks, a replaced bridge, a new pickguard and a finish touchup around the soundhole. The action is comfortable and low, the neck is straight, and the frets are in great shape, making it a joy to play. The guitar has received work to the fretboard and was carefully refretted. During this whole process an adjustable truss rod was added to the neck. While it may not be the most pristine vintage guitar on the market, it more than makes up for it with its breathtaking tone and incredible playability. 

This fantastic vintage players grade Martin D-35 1969 Acoustic Guitar comes with a newer case for protection. A true gem for players seeking a guitar with soul, character, and world-class sound.
