2005 MARTIN HD-35 DREADNOUGHT ACOUSTIC w LR BAGGS PICKUP ~ NATURAL

If you’re looking for an acoustic that spent the last 21 years sitting untouched in a climate-controlled glass display case… congratulations, you’ve clicked on the wrong guitar.

This2005 Martin HD-35has actually been played, which is precisely what these things were built for. It has wear. It has scratches. It has some finish checking and evidence of a life involving actual guitar picks. And yes, there was previously is some separation showing along the top center seam which has been professionally dealt with, and is now solid and stable. We’ve photographed this clearly because surprises are great for birthday parties — not guitar deliveries.

But underneath all of that is the reason people love the HD-35:Sitka spruce, East Indian rosewood, scalloped 1/4\" bracing, that gorgeous three-piece back and enough low-end authority to make you wonder whether somebody hid a subwoofer in the case.Period-correct HD-35 specs include the 25.4\" scale, 1 11/16\" nut, Low Profile neck, ebony fingerboard and bridge, herringbone top trim and Style 28 appointments.

And this one has a couple of useful upgrades. The original tuners have been replaced withGraph Tech Ratio locking tuners, and anaftermarket LR Baggs pickuphas been installed, so when somebody says, “Can you plug that thing in?” you don\'t have to stare at them like they just asked you to install a Floyd Rose.

This isn\'t the HD-35 for the collector who examines a guitar under six different flashlights while wearing white gloves. It\'s the HD-35 for somebody who wants an older Martin with gorgeous rosewood, plenty of character, useful upgrades and that big dreadnought voice — and isn\'t afraid to actuallyplay the thing.

And frankly, at 21 years old, it\'s earned the right to have a few wrinkles. 😎
