The newly re-imagined Martin OM-42 is a beautifully ornate acoustic guitar, built with a 000-14 fret body size for a comfortable playing experience whether sitting or standing. The OM-42 has a Sitka spruce top with East Indian rosewood back and sides, an ebony fretboard with Style 45 snowflake inlays, antique white binding, and an abalone top inlay that also outlines the fretboard as it joins the body – one of the classiest features on high end Martin guitars. Newer features also include an aging toner, new forward shifted scalloped X braces, and open gear tuners offer shimmer with exemplary tone. Long scale and a sleek modified low-oval neck with narrow taper mean strumming and picking for hours in comfort and bliss.
