I have a 1969 D28, and I never registered the guitar. Turns out that back in the 60s there were no cards given with the sale to register the instrument. A call to Martin in 2004 solved that problem. I received a form from Martin where I had to sign, notorize, and provide serial#. That was it. I received my proof of registration in the mail a short time later. I guess as long as no one tried to use your serial number, there isn't much Martin can say. It was easy fast and friendly. The old girl has had a neck reset, refret and a good cleaning. Plays great too, but it gets little play now that I have a Doerr guitar. There is just no comparison.
