(Consignment)

NEW TODAY! |
-
Serial Number:... 0803-01 circa 2001
-
Description:... This is one of those guitars where
I'm sure OM stands for Oh Mamma.... this guitar sounds great! Not only
is this guitar super comfortable to play with its compact OM body size
and low profile neck profile but it is as light as a feather! Big leaf
maple is a dense hard wood which is often described as bright sounding
because it has fewer overtones than other medium density woods and has
a quicker note decay. However, maple does have a very focused and dominate
note fundamental with a treble sparkle that really cuts through a mix making
it a preferred tone wood for live performance. Some players find that maple
guitars are overly bright and lack bass response but that is certainly
not the case with this guitar. There is probably more tight and defined
bass response on this guitar than any other maple instrument that I have
heard. The treble sparkle and laser beam like note fundamental is still
there but the lower midrange and bass provide extra girth to the overall
sound making this an exceptional sounding guitar for use in solo or band
settings. As always the simple but elegant design aesthetic from G.W. Barry
makes this guitar as appealing visual as it is tonally!

Clapton (#8 of 250) takes all of the great features of Eric's signature

looks great, stunning wood sets, cool aged toner top and that alternate
torch patter peghead inlay is mesmerizing! Martin really hit this one out
of the park with the wood combination. The Carpathian spruce blends the
power and clarity of Adirondack spruce with the warm and responsiveness
of Italian alpine spruce. The Madagascar rosewood is very similar to the
much sought after Brazilian rosewood in both its appearance and rich resonance.
To top it off the standard scalloped top braces allow for great vibration
