The Fairbanks F-35 1934 'Martelle' De Luxe is a remarkable tribute to the golden age of American acoustic guitar building, combining vintage-inspired design, premium tonewoods, and distinctive appointments with the exceptional craftsmanship of Fairbanks Guitars. Featuring a torrefied Adirondack Spruce top paired with beautifully figured torrefied Curly Maple back and sides, this instrument offers an extraordinary tonal combination with excellent projection, clarity, articulation, and dynamic responsiveness. The Adirondack Spruce top provides impressive headroom and power, while the Curly Maple contributes a focused, articulate voice with excellent note separation and definition. Built around the proportions of a 1934 Jumbo body, this guitar delivers the commanding presence and vintage character that make these larger-bodied instruments so special.
The visual presentation is equally striking, with a full-body sunburst complemented by an aged nitrocellulose finish that gives the instrument a beautifully understated vintage aesthetic. The Honduran Mahogany neck features a comfortable Mod V profile, 24.75" scale length, and 1 3/4" nut width, offering a familiar playing feel with generous string spacing. The pearloid fingerboard and matching headstock create a distinctive period-inspired look, beautifully contrasted by ivoroid body binding and tortoise fingerboard binding. Additional vintage details include a raised tortoise L-5-style pickguard, Brazilian Rosewood bridge, and traditional Red Spruce bracing.
Further appointments include Rickard banjo-style tuning machines, 2 5/16" bridge spacing, and carefully selected materials throughout. The combination of torrefied tonewoods, vintage-inspired construction, and distinctive styling gives this F-35 an unmistakable personality that stands apart from more conventional acoustic designs. Complete with a Harptone Redline Vintage case, the Fairbanks F-35 1934 'Martelle' De Luxe is an exceptional instrument for players and collectors who appreciate the look, feel, and tonal character of classic prewar-inspired American guitars.
