2006 Eichelbaum Traditional OM - OM Acoustic Guitar
Here's a beautiful Eichelbaum OM. It has all the grace you'd expect in a small-bodied guitar, but enough authority for days when you're not in a mood to take prisoners. The Madagascar sides and back display beautiful reddish hues, the German spruce top provides a wonderful contrast. While this is a great all-round guitar that any player would enjoy, fingerstylists will fall in love straight away.

Player Reviews:
"What a big, open OM sound. The treble strings leap off the sounboard. I love it." - Paul Heumiller
"This is a great OM style guitar with nice simple styling and a great, balanced tone. The neck profile is very rounded and will appeal to players who like a bit more wood on their necks." - Al Petteway
"This is a lovely guitar. It's got beautifully warm and rounded basses, and the mids and trebles have an unusual sweetness. It's got punch if you dig in, but it really sounds intimate when you play fingerstyle. Very smooth, this one. Playability is top-notch, sustain is enviable, looks are beautifully understated... (Anybody want to buy my OM?)" - Al Schlimm
