Oh, the joy of playing a light, lively, responsive guitar. This Big Hollow OM is nearly new from 2018, features primo tonewoods (Lutz Spruce on top, Flamed Koa back and sides), and plays like a sweet dream. The trim punching weight of under 4lbs makes for a comfortable session guitar, and the satin-finished neck is equally easy on the hands. The balance from bass to treble is even and smooth, which we often find on the best Koa guitars, but there’s a sweetness unique to the treble response that really sets this Big Hollow apart from the crowd. Alessi tuners, Bevan’s upgraded MOP girl inlaid into the headstock, and Bloodwood bindings are just some of the upgrades (there are Gold EVO frets and an Ameritage case as well).
