Moritz Sattler / OM Old Style Brazilian Rosewood European Spruce / 1990 / Guitar

Moritz Christian Sattler is a very highly regarded luthier from Germany, and is known for his unparalleled eye for detail and perfection. After building under his own name, Sattler founded Manzanita Guitars with Manfred Pietrzok in 1993, and worked there until 2000. Nowadays, Sattler is employed by Lakewood Guitars where, together with Martin Seeliger, he continues to pursue the highest in guitar building. This Old Style OM is a guitar from the former period in Sattler's guitar-making career, and the guitar was completed by him in July of 1990. Sattler did not hold back when it came to wood types for this beautiful guitar, because with a soundbox made of Brazilian rosewood and a top made of European spruce, things are fine in that area! The pattern of the rosewood is impressive, and the subtle bearclaw in the top is also very impressive. The ivoroid binding and herringbone purfling, together with the subdued rosette and tortoise pickguard, add some extra appeal to the body, and here too, the precision of the details is immediately apparent. The V-profile mahogany neck has an ebony fingerboard with a 16-inch radius and bar frets, and this gives the guitar a very traditional playing feel. Sattler lets the beauty of the rosewood headstock plate speak for itself, as he has kept it free of a logo. The guitar has a wonderfully open and played-in sound, and is also remarkably lightweight. Thanks to the scalloped X-bracing that falls somewhere between forward shifted and standard, the guitar has warm sound with a pleasant bass response that is well balanced with the highs and mids. This makes the guitar very versatile, as it handles both fingerstyle and strumming effortlessly. The guitar comes with CITES and TFOA passport in a hardshell case from Meinel.

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.
