Martin HD-35

The Martin HD-35 acoustic guitar is a true embodiment of the timeless sound and design of dreadnought guitars that has found its way across musical genres and has shaped the shape of modern popular music for decades. The instrument is part of the Standard series, bringing together superbly crafted models in classic Martin designs, and comes in a moulded case, making it instantly ready to be loaded into your car/van for long or short journeys in pursuit of your musical dreams.

The front of the guitar is made from solid Sitka spruce, the back and sides from also solid select East Indian rosewood, while the back is made from three pieces. The resonance of the soundboard and the overall good acoustic properties of the guitar are enhanced by the special X-ribbing (Forward-Shifted X-Brace).

The Select Hardwood neck, which is attached to the body at the fourteenth fret as standard, is joined by a 20-fret ebony fingerboard. Orientation around its surface is facilitated by mother-of-pearl position markers and black dots on the sides. Precise tuning and good sustain are guaranteed by the fit of the strings through the compensated saddle and the bone zero fret in the chrome-plated mechanics and ebony bridge. The stylish look of the instrument is accentuated by the double-sided bright Antique White body and fingerboard binding, herringbone front and Zig-Zag back pickguard, black and white ring rosette, rosewood headstock veneer and tortoiseshell pickguard, which also protects the guitar's lacquer from scratches.

The American Martin company, founded in 1833, is deservedly one of the biggest and most respected names in stringed instruments. For decades, it has been one of the leading innovators in guitar design and manufacturing technology. However, to use only the past tense would be a great mistake; instruments with the Martin logo are still today among the guarantees of the highest quality in craftsmanship and sound. In addition, their current products use "eco-friendly" components made from renewable resources and composite materials.
