HD-35 v. 810 (no electronics on either)

This is simple. Just pick one and explain why you like it. I've spent a lot of time and effort narrowing down my choices and have arrived at these two. The sound of the HD-35 is booming just like a Martin should be. The Taylor 810 has new top bracing which is a HUGE improvement over the 810's made b...

I'll do that since I get free long distance. What/Who is "dave's guitars"? Do you mean a retailer or dave matthews? I already do know that a D-35 is $1499 and an HD-35 is $1874. Both of these are as of October 2 and they are factory new and include the guitar, the 640 molded case, all paperwork/warr...

I have played a D-28, HD-28 and a D-35 and here are my impressions:
1. D-35 is more bassy than the D-28 without losing treble volume
2. HD-28 is slightly less bassy than the D-35 with more distinct midrange and treble response

Cheers!

If I were you I would seriously consider getting a fishman rare earth soundhole pickup. They sound awesome and they are removable.

Hey man where did you get such a big pic of that guitar? I'm only wondering because I just recently went to that site and found some really nice pics of other guitars but I forgot to bookmark it. If Hendrix can't remember the site, do any of you other guys know where to get high resolution pics of M...

Martin Question

It seems like every few responses I read to any questions about Martins that someone says that they are "hit or miss" in terms of their quality. Does this mean that some are just made better and sound better than others? Is this because of lower quality standards that Martin has or something? Also, ...

One more thing. What are the other differences between the D-35 and the HD-35 besides the Herringbone inlay, the tortoise pickguard, and the thinner/scalloped bracing?

--->I'VE FINALLY NARROWED IT DOWN!!!!!! *APPLAUSE*

I've decided to either go with a Martin D-35 ($1449), a Martin HD-35($1879), or a Taylor 810E (no cutaway, expression system electronics). I have a few questions that you guys can hopefully fill me in on. 1) Is the HD-35 worth the extra $400? (If Timmy Reynolds plays a regular D-35 I would think its...
