Sound Pure's Take

Liking this one. A lot of dimension to the tone and good projection when you lay into it. The Aura system isn't currently working, but the former owner put in a K&K system that sounds terrific. Hard to beat an all solid-wood Martin with this price tag.

From Martin and Co.

Martin Guitar's OMCPA3 is a stage- and studio-ready guitar that combines the affordability of a gloss top with the same tonewoods and powerful electronics as the PA1 and PA2 models, in an orchestra body size. This guitar is a perfect companion for the gigging or bedroom musician.
