Martin OMJM John Mayer Signature Orchestra Model Acoustic-Electric Guitar OHSC Mint! These are selling for $3999 now and are almost impossible to find, save big on this one! It is as new in the box, only lightly strummed to check the set up. (plays amazing) The OMJM John Mayer Special Edition features a top of solid spruce with specially designed "hybrid" bracing that enhances the rich, full sound. Body appointments are also similar, with a Style 45 rosette featuring a center ring of colorful paua (abalone) shell, bold herringbone around the top, grained ivoroid binding throughout and a traditional OM teardrop polished and beveled tortoiseshell pickguard. To enhance the beauty of the wood, a specially formulated vintage "aging" toner is applied and then the polished nitocellulose gloss lacquer completes the picture. Hardshell case included.There was never a question about which tone woods to use for the OMJM John Mayer Signature Edition back and sides. East Indian rosewood is world renowned for its warm, rich tone. It has a wonderful harmonic structure that produces incredibly smooth overtones when combined with the spruce top and hybrid bracing. Black and white purfling surrounds the back, and there's an HD-style "zigzag" center strip. Other features include a black African ebony bridge with compensated TUSQ saddle, Style 45 white bridgepins inlaid with abalone and that jewel-like nitrocellulose gloss lacquer finish.The OMJM John Mayer Signature Edition's Spanish cedar neck with diamond volute is carved specifically with playing comfort in mind, combining 1-11/16" width and low profile shape for easy fretting. The East Indian rosewood headplate sports Martin's Old Style decal in silver rather than the familiar gold and nickel Gotoh open-geared tuners with butterbean knobs. The black African ebony fingerboard highlights 1/8" mother-of-pearl position markers and John Mayer's signature inlaid in pearl between the 19th and 20th frets.Many acoustics - and yes, even some premium quality instruments - come with optional electronics packages or even "off-the-shelf" units which can save some money, but ultimately compromises the amplified sound. For the OMJM John Mayer Signature Edition, the Martin luthiers carefully selected a Martin Gold Plus system that would be factory installed in the guitar. This results in an amazingly detailed amplified sound that's never harsh or brittle sounding.Of course, a guitar this special comes with a special vintage Geib style hardshell case to protect your OMJM Signature Edition for years - or more accurately, decades to come. Making it even more distinctive, Mayer created a unique art deco inspired monogram that's embroidered right onto the case. What's more, each and every OMJM bears an interior label with the signatures of both John and Martin chairman C. F. Martin IV, and is individually numbered in sequence.Features: Color: Natural with vintage tonerBody Type: OM-styleFinish: GlossNeck Wood: Spanish cedarNeck Shape: Custom low profileTop Wood: SpruceBack Wood: East Indian rosewoodSide Wood: East Indian rosewoodMachine Heads: Nickel Gotoh open-gearedScale Length: 25.4"Fingerboard: African ebonyNo. of Frets: 20Position Markers: Custom mother-of-pearlPickups: Martin Gold Plus Natural 1Controls: N/APickup Switching: N/ABridge/Tailpiece: Ebony with compensated TUSQ saddleHardware: Nickel platedCase: Vintage Geib style hardshell with monogramFast Fed Ex shipping with Signature Required Delivery See my other outstanding guitars in my Reverb StoreThank you for stopping by!!
