Tech Notes	The neck was "overset" and will need to be reset with a shallower pitch. The action is currently 3/64ths on Bass and 4/64ths on Treble with an improperly radiused saddle. This guitar would also benefit from a refret to address the buzzing. The bridge plate should be plugged/glued where the ball ends rest (they are sinking into the plate).

Description

*AS-IS* In 1967, this was the highest end Martin one could get. It had binding on the fretboard and 3 back panels; which also cleverly allowed the use of smaller sections of Brazilian Rosewood that would become exhausted from factory supply by 1970. This 1967 Martin D-35 comes from early enough in the model's launch in 1965 that it still has a maple bridge plate and tortoise pickguard. These guitars are boomy and warm.

Comes in modern Martin Soft Case (Gig Bag)

This example is being sold As-Is and has not been worked on by CVG staff. We have created a list of what the guitar needs, visible in the "Tech Notes" section.
