Yes... What not to like about the Martin D-35 that I bought new in mid-1969?
Well, as 50 years went by, the body and fretboard needed repairs, the even-when-new unpleasantly high action kept creeping up, needing a couple of set ups, until finally the saddle was gone and it was going to need an expensive neck reset. The big body became uncomfortable to hold. And as I turned 80, I wondered what my wife would do with it when I passed. So I sold it and got a nice OM.
Everything had changed.
