1976 Martin D-35 Indian/Sitka
We acquired this beauty from a local customer in great condition. We had Bill Tippin do a setup and replace the pickguard and now it’s ready for it’s next owner. This is a 1976 Martin D-35 with a very pretty sunburst. It’s all original, but for the guard, and sounds amazing. The years have been kind and really made this one wide open, it’s truly one of the best sounding dreads we’ve seen regardless of price or model number. If you want a great Dread from that mecca in Nazareth, PA, look and listen to this one.

The Steve Miller 00 Limited Edition from Martin is revered as one of their finest series. The gorgeous Koa and Englemann Spruce combine for a small body voice full of charm and offering both warmth and sparkle. The slotted headstock with a torch inlay combine with the bound fingerboard and headstock for a stunning look. The Koa on this particular guitar is outstanding and highly figured Koa is becoming quite rare indeed. The 00 size is very easy to hold which is a good thing because you’ll want to play for hours…

Some feel that Martin is making far too many Signature Editions these days, but this is one that works because it’s design is different and has real merit. The Norman Blake Signature Edition incorporates a 000 sized body, slotted headstock, V neck profile, short scale, a 12 Fret neck, a bridge in the sweet spot and braces that are scalloped. All of that adds up to tone, sweet tone… If Martin guitars were priced on tone alone, this would be five times the price. Blake fans read on….

Martin made just 1375 EM-18 guitars from 1979-1982.

The Paul Simon Limited Edition from Martin Guitars is full of good Karma, after all it benefit The Children’s Health Fund which Paul Simon co-founded. It is also one of the very few things Paul ever endorsed. He worked closely with Martin to determine the specs and decided on a OM body with forward bracing, adorned with 42 Style appointments, Paul Simon inlaid on the last fret, label signed by Paul Simon, Tortoise bindings on the body and neck and a customized fingerboard that starts at a 1 11/16″ nut but is wider than most up high to facilitate fingerstyle. The tone from the Rosewood and Sitka Spruce body is clear and open with shimmering overtones. This Martin Paul Simon guitar is perfect for fingerstyle play. Only 223 of these were made, so it’s a very limited edition as well.

We just love the 45 style trim that adorns this beautiful Martin OM. The 45 style incorporates abalone purfling on the top, back, and sides and it just sparkles.

The Adirondack top on this particular guitar is superb with very even grain spacing and lots of silking. The voice is wide awake and proud. The bass is huge for an OM and the treble full and sparkling. This one is equal adept at strumming or fingerstyle and is in mint condition. Player or collector, you’ll love this beautiful Martin.

The tone is extraordinary with projection that will blow your hair back and it’s been completely setup by master luthier Bill Tippin so it needs nothing but someone to play it. There are no cracks anywhere on this guitar and it is nearly completely original. Just listen to the audio on this one…
