  Hi @Dave57 If it’s the one from the lessons this week, I think it’s a D35 or HD35. Just a few things on the differences.

  “The most significant difference is that the HD-28 has scalloped bracing and the D-28 has non-scalloped bracing, also known as straight bracing”

  “The D is a more focused, yet warm, rich sound while the HD is a bigger, warmer, bassier (too bassy in some situations) sound. Both are very good for my style (singer/songwriter) of music.”

  Hi @Dave57 , the Martin that Tony used this week has a spruce top and what looks to be rosewood back and sides. If you go to the Martin website and look for models with that tone wood combination, you should be able to narrow it down. IMHO, He is playing an OM size body guitar – a little smaller than a dread, but you should be able to figure it out. Also, it could be a “Custom Shop” model, so don’t forget to look there as well.
