David Gilmour has partnered with C.F. Martin & Co. Inc. to create two signature edition guitars to benefit the David Gilmour Charitable Foundation.
The Martin D-35 David Gilmour is a nod to the guitar Gilmour purchased used outside Manny’s Music Shop in New York City in the early-’70s. His primary acoustic for more than 40 years, the instrument fetched $1.2 million as part of a charitable auction of his guitars in 2019.
The 6- and 12-string versions sell for $5,499.
These machine’s are beautiful investment pieces and I would certainly be an honor to own either the 6 or 12 string version. I can only imagine how they would sound playing “Wish you were here” or “Hey you” on them.
