This latest OM from Don Musser is something extraordinary. Explosively figured The Tree Mahogany back and sides, Engelmann Spruce top, with nitro finish throughout and pearl across the body and headstock with surprisingly three-dimensional properties. Striking Rosewood bridge, headstock veneer, and fingerboard set off the Maple bindings, and Don’s medium thickness C neck is easy peasy for left hand work. The scale length is 25.5”, just a touch longer than Martin long scale for a snappier response, and that pairs well with the crisp tones generated by The Tree Mahogany here, and the warm, smooth trebles courtesy of Engelmann Spruce.
This beauty is just that: a beautiful work of functional art, balancing visual aesthetics with dynamic and inspirational tonality.
