Martin dreadnoughts had played a major role in the folk music of the post-war years, and as folk and rock music edged inexorably closer, Martin launched a new guitar in 1965. In sync with the '60s zeitgeist, the D-35 was born of ecological concerns. Brazilian rosewood was fast becoming unsustainable, but Martin had a stash of rosewood from D-28 two-piece backs that had been set aside due to the presence of small defects. Using smaller pieces of wood, Martin luthiers could trim away any flaws and fashion a guitar with a stunning three-piece back. But the D-35 was not just a D-28 with a fancier back. To differentiate the sound of this new model, Martin used lighter bracing: 1/4 inches for the top, and 000 back bracing. This created a louder, more resonant tone that lends itself beautifully to vocal accompaniment. Quickly, artists like Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, and Bruce Springsteen gravitated to the D-35 and it continues to win over a new generation of players like Seth Avett of the Avett Brothers.Martin D-35 Acoustic Guitar Features: Spruce top; non-scalloped 1/4-inch X bracing 3-piece East Indian rosewood back with Multi-Stripe inlay High Performance Taper Modified Low Oval neck; dovetail neck joint Bound ebony fingerboard with mother-of-pearl Style 28 inlays Plek'd fretboard for enhanced playability Multi-Stripe body binding Style 28 Multi-Stripe Rosette; black pickguard East Indian rosewood headplate with script overlay logo 25.4-inch scale length Bone Nut, width: 1.75 inches Ebony Modern Belly-style bridge with drop-in compensated White Tusq saddle Chrome enclosed-gear tuning machines Finish: gloss (top, back, and sides), satin (neck) SpecificationDetail String Type Steel Number of Strings 6 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Shape D-35 Dreadnought Back & Sides Wood East Indian Rosewood Top Wood Spruce Finish Gloss Color Natural, Aging Toner Body Bracing Forward Shifted X-bracing, non-scalloped Binding Antique White Neck Wood Select Hardwood Neck Shape Modified Low Oval, High Performance Taper Radius 16" Fingerboard Material Ebony Fingerboard Inlay Mother-of-Pearl Style 28 Dots Number of Frets 20 Scale Length 25.4" Nut Width 1.75" Nut/Saddle Material Bone/Compensated Bone Bridge Material Ebony Tuning Machines Chrome Enclosed Gear Strings Lifespan 2.0 92/8 Phosphor Bronze, .013-.056 Case/Gig Bag Hardshell Case RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
