Martin Limited D-35 David Gilmour 12-String Natural

Description

For over forty years his Martin D12-28 12 string was a constant in David Gilmours recording & song writing arsenal. When this guitar went to auction in 2019 we were delighted to be able to work with him to create a 12 string for his music today. The David Gilmour signature models are the first D-35s ever made with neck, back and sides of sinker mahogany, chosen by David for its warm, rich tones and exquisitely beautiful grain. A Carpathian Spruce top delivers unparalleled 12 string tone with our vintage gloss finish and antique white binding providing classic Golden Era Martin style. In addition, a special David Gilmour headstamp is featured on the reverse of the headstock. The signature models are limited to 250 pieces and every label is hand-signed by David himself, ensuring this guitars place on every collectors wish list. Through this partnership, Martin Guitar is proud to support the David Gilmour Charitable Foundation.
