Martin D35 Dreadnought guitar

The Martin D35 soon became a great success after it's introduction.

Bound striped ebony fingerboard and of course a spruce top.

Three piece back:

Not very traditional but running out of supply of

bigger pieces for the backs of these guitars,

someone came up with this idea though not

entirely new. Antonio de Torres, the famous luthier of the

19th century allready used more pieces for back and

soundboard not even symmetrically placed! Along with
the tinier bracing these models are sounding better

to my ears compared to a D28.
