Martin decided to truly honor the legendary David Gilmour and the iconic "Wish You Were Here" that he immortalized on a vintage Martin D35. These guitars are a testament to the enduring legacy of this musical icon and the song that resonates in the hearts of countless fans. They became instant collectibles, with every single one selling out within the very first day of release, a testament to the profound impact of David Gilmour and the emotional resonance of "Wish You Were Here."
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these guitars feature premium aged sinker mahogany, a departure from the traditional Rosewood of classic D35s. This choice of wood was made to achieve the exact tonal qualities that David Gilmour desired. Each guitar comes complete with a hand-signed certificate from David Gilmour himself and CF. Martin, making it a cherished collector's item.
In the words of David Gilmour himself, "In 2003, David Gilmour told BBC Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs his Martin D-35 was the one luxury item he’d want if he were stranded at sea. 'It’s the best guitar I own,' he said. 'It’s the guitar that’s always by my side. I’ve written just about every piece of music using that guitar. My ideas come through that guitar.'"
This guitar is not just an instrument; it's a piece of music history. Most prominently heard on "Wish You Were Here," it was used on every Pink Floyd album from "Dark Side of the Moon" (1973) to "The Final Cut" (1983). While the 1969 D-35 proved indispensable to Gilmour's artistry, he chose to auction it to benefit the charity ClimateEarth, adding to its storied history.
The guitar we have is literally untouched; the plastic is still on the pickguard, and the tags are all still in place. Original strings cover untouched frets, too. It's a dream come true for lovers of the great artist and the iconic song itself. David Gilmour and the Custom Shop Martin D35 - The Art of Guitar. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of music history that will resonate for generations to come.
