I bought a D-400 new on the Canadian side of Niagra Falls in summer of 1976. GREAT piece. Still have it. Laminate, of course, but the fake abalone (It's a Martin D-41 copy) is very nice, (way better than the Ibanez Bob Weir I used to own), has the "V" neck, and volute. The top had aged naturally to a nice honey color. I've had more complements over the years than I can shake a stick at. There is a youtube video of some guy in Germany? playing some crappy song, but he has one, and I was thrilled to see it.
