MARTIN D-35 Description
- dreadnought body style, solid spruce top, three-piece Brazilian rosewood (1965-69) or Indian rosewood (1969-present) back, Brazilian rosewood (1965-69) or Indian rosewood (1969-present) sides, round soundhole with 5/9/5 grouping ring rosette, six-ply top body binding, three-ply back binding with white outer layer, side binding with two black lines, mahogany neck, 14/20-fret bound ebony fingerboard with pearl dot inlays, rosewood headstock overlay with logo and three-per-side chrome tuners, ebony bridge with white bridge pins and black dots, tortoise (1965-67) or black (1967-present) pickguard, available in Natural or Sunburst (optional) finish, 25.4 in. scale, mfg. 1965-present.
In 1967, black pickguard replaced tortoisehell pickguard. In 1969, Martin transitioned from Brazilian rosewood to Indian rosewood back and sides, but a few guitars from 1969 have been encountered with a combination of Brazilian and Indian rosewood because of the three-piece back (Brazilian rosewood wings with an Indian rosewood center). Martin also produced one SD8-35 eight-string guitar (1969). In 1985, Martin introduced an adjustable U-bar truss rod as standard equipment; however, they also offered a non-adjustable square bar truss rod through the early 1990s and these guitars are stamped D-35Q (total production of 289 instruments). In 1987, Martin introduced a new low-profile neck on the D-35 and stamped these guitars D-35P; however, they continued to offer their old neck style through 1990 and these guitars are stamped D-35 (total production of 1,485 instruments).
