Details
Martin doesn't allow using standard Martin model codes for Custom Shop guitars, but this is essentially an OM-41 Custom, with wild grain Indian rosewood and a VTS spruce top. Lots of other serious upgrades, of course, such as the quilted Bubinga binding on all edges of the body, neck & headstock. Despite all the visual treats, especially the crazy grain in the back, the real prize is the tone and volume as while this OM might not cover the needs for a hard-core bluegrass band, it's got plenty of headroom and projection for just about any other role. Yet it responds to a light touch, so those who favor subtle fingerstyle playing will be equally rewarded.
