With OM number 358, Don gives us a gorgeous example of the dynamism and wide-ranging appeal of this body size. This brand new Musser is responsive to many different styles of play, has a clarity and precision in the trebles that pairs up nicely with a sweet, rich bottom end, and the fit and finish are flawless from tuner to tail. For this build, Don picked out a chocolatey set of Brazilain Rosewood for the back and sides, paired it with Colorado Engelmann Spruce on top, and bound it all up with some truly lovely Curly Bigleaf Maple bindings (extra bevelled for creature comfort). And caps it off with a dalmatian style pickguard and Abalone rosette plus MOP torch headstock.
