Powerhouse with Pearl to spare! Here’s a gorgeous example of Roy McAlister’s Vintage Series OM models, decked out with a gorgeous 45-style appointment package, that’s opened up handsomely since 2006. Premium Brazilian Rosewood like the set Roy used here for the back and sides is a wonder to behold: straight grain with just enough figure to make it pop, reminiscent of prewar Martin stock, and extra stable. Adirondack Spruce on top, which has opened up nicely in the past 15 years, rounds out the basis for a classic, vintage sound. The voice is smooth and well balanced across the registers; lively string energy in the bottom end helps carry tone out and away from the body with great projection.

If you ever listen to Jackson Browne, then you know well the sound of Roy McAlister’s guitars. To me they have a beautiful brilliance and shimmer that is superb for fingerstyle, and also excels at strumming. This one in the 45 style shimmers to the eye as well as the ears. | Scale Length | 25.4000 in |
