That depends on the condition - both visually and aurally - of the instrument. Mid 70s Martins were spotty in build quality. Some were done nicely and stand up very well to other years but most had problems either in appearance, sound quality or both. That being said, I've seen good condition Martins from that period go for $1500 - $2500. Great sounding rarities (like Stephen Bruton's shaded top model) could fetch much more. It really does depend on the sound.

500 bucks in fair condition, IF it plays and sounds well needing only set up or nothing at all to be functional. Maybe 1100 if its in excellent shape needing nothing with great sound. IMHO only

What type of harmonica does Neil Young play in his songs?

During the Buffalo Springfield days he regularly used a Gretsch White Falcon which he sporadically used throughout his career. His most famous guitar is heavily modified Gibson Les Paul which is named Ol' Black (he has an array of other Les Pauls too). During the Time Fades Away tour he used a Gibson Flying V. Throughout the 'Ditch Trilogy' albums he used a Fender Telecaster. His main acoustic guitars are a Martin D45 and a Martin D28.


What does D-18 or D-28 mean on guitar?

D28 and D18 are likely references to two models of dreadnought guitars the CF Martin company has put out. D18 being the less expensive of the two...and D28 being a step up with significantly more exotic woods used for the back and sides. the HD28 takes both models a step further by using herringbone purfling around the edge of the guitar.


What brand of guitar did george Harrison prefer?

George played a wide variety of makes and models during his career. Looking at pictures of him playing I've seen a Gibson SG, a Fender Telecaster and Stratacaster and he also played a Rickenbacker 12 string which became highly popular following his use of it. I've also seen him playing a Martin D28 (Acoustic). He would have played many more guitars than these ones I've named.


What kind of guitar does glen hansard play in the movie once?

I may be wrong but it certainly looks exacty like a Takamine F-360s, 's' standing for solid top (spruce). I have the same guitar 1987 model. Made in Japan. I was told these are the "lawsuit model" guitars because Takamine made a exact copy of a Martin D28 (primo guitars but big $$) and Martin filed a lawsuit to protect their baby. These particular Takamine guitars are greatly under-valued, IMOA. The sound is nothing short of amazing how it projects and fills the room your playing in.

How much is a Martin Shenandoah acoustic guitar from 1984 worth?

In US dollars 600-1000 depending on condition, and model. Maybe even $1200 for some. This would have been one of the first years for the Shenandoah. There is a lot of different speculation as to what these are and why they were made. Some say a top of the line Sigma was the prototype for this guitar. More than likely Martin's Japanese builder had extra parts left over from when Martin moved production of Sigma to Korea, and Martin's stable of luthiers was aging, and new younger guys were not into using draw knives, and rasps, but power tools. Martin, from what I heard, bought a lot of the tools used to make the Shenandoah, and now uses it to make Martins period. Let's face it I'd rather have a Shenandoah than a DX1, or other modern laminate back and sides Martin. For a Shenandoah in good condition I would say $800-$900 is a fair price. In superb condition maybe more. I like mine, except for the pick up under the saddle. I don't care for most of those anyway. If you find someone who really wants one $1200 is about top dollar the last I checked. Mine has some laminate plate on the neck block saying model D28-32. Martin also used a truss rod in these, and finally started using them in Martins in 1989.

What is the distance from Milan Italy to Strasbourg France?

about 470 km taking this route:Follow signs to AUTOSTRADA - A9 COMO-CHIASSO (CH), from Milano, to SWITZERLAND, where the roadway continues as the A2 motorway.Continue on the A2 motorway to Basel, where you have two options:One, you could split off onto A3 towards MULHOUSE (F), and then take A3 to FRANCE, where you would continue on the AUTOROUTE A35 directly north to Strasbourg, orYou could also continue on A2 towards KARLSRUHE (D) to DEUTSCHELAND, where you will take the AUTOBAHN A5 to D28 STRASBOURG, and then take D28 across to STRASBOURG, FRANCE, via the EUROPE BRIDGE. This route may save you time, as there is no speed limits in Germany. Both routes are about the same distance though.NOTE: On motorways in Switzerland, there is a MANDATORY road vignette that you must pay for and display on your car BEFORE you drive on the motorways there. The vignette applies for all motorways, and is valid for 1 year. It costs about €35 for an average car. Now this may seem ridiculously expensive for just one trip thru Switzerland, but trust me, it is actually cheaper to go thru Switzerland and pay their silly vignette than to go around Switzerland thru either the Mont-Blanc or the Fréjus Tunnels. In fact, one journey through either of these tunnels is the same price as one Swiss Vignette, for the whole year. Consider that, plus the fact that you will have to pay road tolls in Italy and France, and going thru Switzerland is actually much cheaper. (There are only two toll booths in Italy [one on A8 leading up to A9, and one on A9 near Como]. In addition, there are no toll booths in France or Germany past Basel.)
