What We Think
Condition: Used, Excellent
Folks, this might be the best acoustic I've ever played. Bourgeois always hits it out of the park but this OM is particularly amazing. These specific cuts of Redwood and Koa give it a full-bodied sound that is loud, clear, and unmistakable. The neck plays perfectly, and the body size will fit anyone comfortably. I'm not exaggerating when I say there's not a single Soundpure employee who didn't stop and compliment this wonderful OM when we had it out for the first time. Call in and talk to one of our specialists about bringing this absolute dream of a guitar home!

Manufacturer's Description from Bourgeois
Some guitars have a sweet niche. Few credibly occupy all of them.
The OM guitar is the third largest 14 fret body size in the 0/00/000-OM/JOM-GA progression, and differentiates from the 000 by its 25.5” long scale neck.
Our most popular body size – and probably the second-most popular acoustic guitar worldwide – it’s no coincidence that the “Orchestra Model” appeals equally to fingerstyle players and flatpickers, thanks to its unparalleled combination of balance, presence, power and comfortable playability. It wasn’t always that way. Once relegated to the history books, the OM began a slow resurgence in the mid 1980s after Schoenberg Guitars, co-founded by Dana, teamed up with C.F. Martin to introduce the first production-made OM since the 1930s.
Available with our OM-innovative Large Soundhole option for increased flatpicking performance, and with cutaway and arm bevel options for additional playability and comfort.
About Manufacturer
Bourgeois Guitars are defining the future of vintage tone, combining old-world hand-voicing techniques with modern innovations in design and materials. Built in a ca. 1850s mill in the industrial town of Lewiston Maine, master luthier Dana Bourgeois and his small team of highly skilled craftsman produce some of the finest steel-string instruments available today.
Known for tonal excellence, meticulous craftsmanship and top-notch materials, they are played by six-string luminaries such as Bryan Sutton, Ricky Skaggs, Sean Watkins, Della Mae, the late Doc Watson and countless professional and nonprofessional enthusiasts. Bourgeois guitars have had a prominent role in the American steel-string guitar renaissance for more than two decades, helping shape acoustic music’s most recent rise in popularity.
