2004 Flammang GC60-42 - OM Acoustic Guitar
Here's one for the player who loves the feel of a short scale 12 fretter with a wide fingerboard. This FLammang Guitar feels like butter with it's short 24.75 string length. The 12 neck joint not only makes for a comfortable reach for the left-hand but also puts the bridge directly in the sweet spot of the top for maximum tone. And tone this one has, Brazilian Rosewood topped with Adirondack spruce for classic voicing. It's adorned in the 42 style abalone and fingerboard pattern, capped with a beautiful torch inlay on the headstock. This is by far the best sounding and playing Flammang guitar we have ever seen. A treasure.

Player Reviews:
"This is simple, I love this guitar. I'm a big 12th fret fan as I feel the bridge placement gets the most energy from the top, and of course the reach is very comfortable. The wider fingerboard will please many players as will its sheer beauty. The Brazilian set is lovely and paired with the Adirondack spruce it has a classic tone finger pickers will love." - Paul Heumiller
"This is so much like and old Martin OM-42 that it's scary. The 12-fret design puts the bridge right in the "sweet spot" on the top. " - Al Petteway
