Sound Pure's Take
Folks, we love old guitars. Who doesn't? If it's got the "M" word on the headstock and some years on it, you just come to expect a personality; a character. No exception here! This gorgeous '70 D-35 is in remarkably good shape (check out the pics above for isolated shots of what wear there is) and in even better voice--punchy, rich, and bassy for days. We were thrilled to discover that, aside from a setup, the guitar only need some fretwork to get to a strong 100%. Neck angle, nut, saddle, bridge, etc. are all happy and healthy for years to come. And if our eyes don't deceive us, that looks like a strip of Brazilian smack dab in the middle of that back! A piece of living history!
