Rory Gallagher: A Martin D-35 Flat Top Acoustic Guitar,1968,Serial no. 254568 stamped on neck block, bound body with natural finish, spruce top, Brazilian rosewood three-piece back and sides, soundhole rings, replaced pickguard, ebony bridge, bound ebony fingerboard with dot markers, headstock with Grover tuners, in original grey hardshell case, with strings, original warped pickguard, one broken pin, pickup and strap, with transit and other stickers, including a British Tour Backstage Pass,CITES 24GBA100ZG8EM,guitar 40 1/2in (103cm) longFootnotes:'This is the one. It's his acoustic for everything. From Taste onwards, it was all done with this... He loved playing blues on acoustic...' - Daniel Gallagher, 'Rare Guitars', Guitar.comRory purchased this guitar second-hand in London in 1970, and it became his main acoustic guitar throughout his career, for both live and studio performances. '...The thing about a Martin is that it takes about five years to play itself in, it has to develop through a whole lot of things like the heat of the player's body, the atmosphere it's played in and all that. Of course the longer you keep it, the better it gets provided you pay some sort of attention to it...'- Rory Gallagher, Melody Maker, June 1975.The importance of this Martin within Rory's musical practice can be seen in this interview for Guitar Magazine in 1978: 'I get tunes in my head, in taxis and buses and hotels, and jot down a couple of lines. As often as not you're sitting in the dressing room and a riff will come out of the guitar, and then naturally it'll tend to be the Stratocaster, or at home it'll probably be the Martin.'Thus, as well as being a key instrument for both live and studio work, the Martin was sometimes used in more intimate settings, often at home, but nonetheless central to his process of creating music. In 2007, Martin Guitars paid tribute to Rory's use of the D-35, by introducing the limited edition D-35 'Rory Gallagher' model.Live performanceRory Gallagher, 'Out On the Western Plains', Cork Opera House, 4th November 1987, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19hdE2JmBf8.Exhibition'The UK Guitar Show', Olympia, London, UK, 2018.'Born To Rock', National Museum of Ireland in Dublin, Ireland; Harrods, London, UK, 2006-2007.LiteratureBrian Harrigan, 'Grinding the axe, MM's Focus on instruments', Melody Maker, 14 June 1975, www.roryon.com/grinding161.html.John Dalton, 'Rory Gallagher: I try to keep the balance between madness and technique', Guitar, September 1978, www.roryon.com/balance384.html.Josh Gardner, 'Rare Guitars, Rory Gallagher battered 1968 Martin D-35', 4 June, 2019, Guitar.com.Martin Guitars:The Martin D-35 is arguably the most esteemed model in the Martin guitar line-up. Introduced in 1965, the D-35 was developed in response to the growing demand for a dreadnought with a more pronounced bass response and a unique aesthetic. It features a three-piece back, made from high-quality rosewood, which not only enhances its visual appeal but also contributes to its deep, resonant sound. The D-35's tone is characterised by a warm, powerful low end, balanced with clear mids and sparkling highs, making it a favourite among singer-songwriters, bluegrass players, and folk musicians. Over the years, the D-35 has become synonymous with Martin's legacy of producing guitars that blend tradition with innovation, offering players an instrument that is both visually striking and sonically versatile.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: YY Subject to CITES regulations when exporting items outside of the UK, see clause 13.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
A Neolithic, Lower Palaeolithic quartzite hand axe, circa 300,000 years old; with museum accession code AAH12 to one side; 17.5cm long.PROVENANCE: Sands of Time, Washington D.C., USA, where the piece was described as Acheulian. Previously the Collection of Harold Hess, Virginia, USA.NOTE. Interestingly, whilst the hand axe was sold by the Washington DC dealer as being Acheulian, and therefore circa 70,000 years old, later correspondence with the British Museum (included with the lot) suggests a far earlier date of between 800,000 and 300,000 years
