Delicious. Rich, velvety, butter-smooth. We love this 2018 Jang OM from tuner to tail. The setup is that slinky sweet spot that’s perfect for fingerstyle in a range of tunings and easy on the hands with a 1 13/16” nut. Note clarity is exquisite; precision is the name of the game when it comes to this one’s voice. Then there’s the eye candy. Dramatically figured “Beeswing” Cocobolo back and sides—yes, please—paired with a creamy Italian Alpine Spruce top and Isaac’s Uchida-Style “Bendaway” cutaway, as well as a Subtle Manzer Wedge body contour, makes for a striking presentation that’s comfortable to boot. Red purflings set off the Spruce top and Ebony bindings, and gold Gotoh tuners round it out with Isaac’s distinctive two-tone headplate.

Isaac Jang has quickly put himself high on the leaderboard of custom guitar makers. This OM starts with Beeswing Cocobolo Rosewood, then perfect Italian Spruce on top, a Uchida-inspired “bendaway” cutaway, a wedge body, and a voice that as rich and complex as any you’ve heard. I simply can’t state how much I enjoy this guitar and how unique it is.
This guitar reminds me of a particular kind of day: the first day of real summer. Warmth suffuses the voice, and there's an ease to the playability, plus this exquisitely dynamic response in the midrange. This Jang feels in equal measure exciting and relaxing, just like that first touch of sweet summer warmth. Hats off to you, Isaac. This OM feels like an old friend. 1 in stock
