Fantastic comparison! I'm not a bluegrass player - I play much of the style you played (just not as well)!! I'm a bit unsure but definitely the D35 and the HD28!! Many thanks. Now I need to find somewhere that has both - to test playability and the neck/action. Loved your demo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
To me both D28 and D35 have more bottom end and sound more articulate. But both HD28 and HD35 slightly brighter and more balanced. They all sound fantastic, but I think I prefer the original D versions to the HD. Cosmetically I like the HD28 the best.
Funny you say that. The HD is closer to the original d28. Back then it wasn't called the hd28 it was just called the D28. But they had herringbone and scalloped x bracing. It was discontinued then reintroduced and now they offer both. Still waiting for a straight braces version of the d18 though 😂
They all sound truly amazing. For me though, I prefer the D28 or the HD28 based on one simple thing and it doesn't have anything to do with tone: I just don't like bound necks. That's just my preference.
@@joshleyba3854 don't get me wrong, I love the D35. It's a great guitar. It was neck and neck between the two when i bought my 28. I love the sunburst finishes on the d28 and d35.
D-35 is my fav for sure. Awesome job!!!
HD-35 finger picking is outstanding
HD-35 great in any case.
thank you for showing so many different styles. this is the best comparison video I could find on RUclips
Great side by side comparison. All sounded great. Own the HD28, but that D-35 sounded great. Those would be my top two.

D35!!!!
Great job! The guitars were mic’d perfectly and the playing was very well done! Thank you!
The d35 and the hd28 were my favorites.
All sounds exeptionnals, but that HD35 sings like a fairy ! So HD35 for me :)
Beautiful playing❤
안녕하세요! 영상 잘 봤습니다! 혹시 마지막 부분 리뷰에서 28과 35의 급차이가 느껴진다는 건 35가 더 상위급이라는 건가요?
28 35 41 42 45 순이긴 합니다. 42 41을 가져봤는데, 28도 너무나 좋은 기타라 생각함다
리뷰어님 목소리가 넘 좋으신.... 전 역시 D-28이 제일 좋네용
D-28 ❤️
Great job! Thank you so much!
Nice job!
beautiful layla intro! great, thanks!
Not Layla but “Old Love”. Beautiful though, indeed.

@@Ledzepfan88 The pre 2012 d18's are straight braced. I had one and it sounded great. It is funny how the hd came about and the nomenclature.
I like the D28 the most
D-35 for me, so smooth.
Could you tell me the name of the song at 2:03 please, great playing !
Twilight by Kotaro Oshio I believe

I just got a D 35 in sunburst and could not be happier with the choice

I like the feel of them without the bound necks slightly better but I like the looks and I like that the side dots are easier to see.
