2008 Martin OM-21 Special Indian/Sitka
Built in 2008, this excellent Martin OM-21 Special has much of the appeal of a great vintage instrument. The finish is a vintage top toner that makes it look right at home next to the classics. Other features include a pyramid bridge, bound ebony fretboard and a Delmar tortoise pickguard.
This is an extremely fine fingerstyle instrument, but it is also capable of a whole lot more. It has lovely warm bass, and trebles that are round, yet very clear. In all, the OM-21 Special is one of the most impressive new Martins we’ve played!
