2004 Borges OM-28 Sunburst - Orchestra Model Acoustic Guitar
Very few new Borges are being built so we are pleased to have found this lovely OM from Julius. The sunburst and the cutaway gives this guitar an eye-catching appeal, but it's the tone that will amaze you. The style harks back to yesteryear, but the quality is all today. Excellent fit & finish throughout and the voice is clear and strong.
Audio played by Al Petteway
Artists who play instruments by this builder: Buddy Miller, Paul Asbell, Peter Rowan, Peter Farber

Player Reviews:
"Julius builds a beautiful instrument inside and out. The construction of this guitar is impeccable and so is the tone. It plays great and has a lively repsonse showing the Adirondack is broken in nicely. It has a big voice, clear and articulate with OM balance and purity. The cutaway gives full access and the sunburst makes it cool..." - Paul Heumiller
"If you are a fan of the old Martin OM like I am, this could be your next guitar. It's classic in every way and has that sound. The sunburst is a beautiful golden brown. It could be my next guitar." - Al Petteway
