The guitar of choice for blues artist Rory Block, Martin built the now-discontinued OM-28V in two runs – first as the OM-28VR from 1984 to 1990, then as the OM-28V from 1990 to 2014.
During my recent Martin factory tour I was offered my choice of 14 select pre-built Martin Custom Shop guitars, including this Martin 0014F.
Here’s a Martin Custom Shop D-21, built during 2016 that features a spectacular body set of Goncalo Alves or Tigerwood, a South American hardwood found between Mexico and Brazil.
The Martin OM or Orchestra Model design appeared in 1930, and has been built in various forms. The Martin OM-21 uses ’21’ level appointments – Indian Rosewood back and sides, single layer binding, and Ebony for the bridge and bound fingerboard.
This is a treat! A nearly new Martin D-41 from 2017, nicely decorated but not overdressed, just the slightest hint of wear and a clean crisp full tone.
