I always loved the looks, simplicity and sound/tone of a nice D 25. I've owned bunches of them over the year but it seems whenever I needed some quick cash they were the 1st to go. They sell easily in part because they are so affordable and sound so great. And, you can always find another when you're ready to buy again..
I found this arched back Cherry finish D 25 years ago. I've owned it a while now and it's pretty minty cosmetic-wise. When I bought it I knew the neck angle was not great but I played it that way for years and it worked just fine. But, about 3 years ago or so I decided I was going to get each and every guitar that I own and plan to keep in the best possible playing shape I possibly could. I sent this down to Tom Jacobs. It needed nothing but a neck reset, set up and a fresh set of strings. I got it back yesterday and is always the case I'm thrilled with his work. What a great guitar.
I'll likely never get my money out of this one should I sell but sometimes that's o.k. if you love a guitar enough. Plus, never say never, but I have no plans to sell this one. It's one of the two best D 25's I've ever owned.
Here's a couple pics.
