Martin / OM42 Flamed Myrtle / 2008 / Guitar

This is a very rare guitar from Martin in commemoration of their 175th anniversary as a company, and is serial number #9 of 24 built. Based on the iconic OM42 from the 1930s, this guitar sports ornate abalone top purfling, and snowflake inlays in the fingerboard. This example departs from tradition in its use of Flamed Myrtlewood for the back and sides. Apart from its aesthetic beauty, Myrtlewood adds a beautiful warmth and clarity to the tone of the instrument. This guitar is extremely versatile, with wonderful warmth and mellowness when played fingerstyle, and huge volume and clarity when hit with a flatpick. The guitar plays very well up and down the neck, and would be the perfect companion for the instrumentalist or singer/songwriter looking to stand out. It is still really clean with only some light playwear on the body. The condition is excellent and it comes in a hardshell case.

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
