Item Details
Description
Johnny Cash Personally Owned and Played Martin D-35 Acoustic Guitar Given to Peggy Knight W/(3) LOAs - This 1974 Martin D-35 6-string acoustic guitar was personally owned and played by legendary country music crooner, Johnny Cash. Johnny Cash was known to play the Martin D-35, including his famous custom D-35 that was painted black, which is so iconic that Martin created a commemorative edition. This guitar was eventually given by Johnny Cash to Peggy Knight, who was Cash's assistant and lived and traveled with Johnny and his wife June Carter Cash for over 30 years. This guitar comes with a letter from Peggy Knight which states in part, "This letter is to verify that the Martin D35 Guitar Serial No. 34XXXX was formerly owned and used by the late Johnny Cash. This guitar was gifted to me by Johnny Cash after being a lifelong friend and employee of the Carter-Cash family." The guitar also includes a notarized certificate of authenticity signed by Peggy Knight, and a second notarized certificate of authenticity from fellow Cash family friend and employee Sarah B. Ware. Johnny Cash's guitars continue to command a high premium as there are very few available. In May, 2022 Cash's Martin D-21 guitar sold at auction for over $437,000. Please note: Due to the value of this asset shipping times will be slightly longer than normal as the guitar will need to be professionally crated and shipped for proper insurance.
