Martin OM-45 Custom (2014)

With this OM-45 from the Martin Custom Shop we're talking about the absolute pinnacle of the Martin lineup! And we fell in love with this guitar ourselves from the very first strum. Quite apart from the incredible aesthetics and the extraordinary Adirondack top this OM offers a truly special playing and tonal experience. Beautifully balanced with a remarkable depth and intimacy that translates every nuance of your touch instantly. The sustain on this guitar is also above average for an acoustic, carrying beautifully especially when fingerpicking. The frequency spectrum is impressive. This is where we start gushing! This tone simply inspires: very open and wide with silky highs and a fantastic sonic palette. This OM-45 is truly something for sound gourmets! Beyond that, it sits perfectly in your hand with its medium neck profile, letting you glide effortlessly across the deep dark ebony fretboard. This is charmingly adorned with attractive abalone block inlays, as are the binding and rosette. Everything else that makes this guitar the queen of its model line has been incorporated: back and sides are premium rosewood, the neck is select mahogany. Additionally, we're looking at the extremely rare version with a solid Adirondack top. Simply a "100-point" masterpiece from the Martin Custom Shop, which we're proud to offer you in top condition.
