This unusual acoustic-electric cutaway guitar was developed in collaboration with luthier Matt Arranger, who has gained recognition for his bold instrument designs. Based upon Martin's "OM" Orchestra Model shape, this Special Edition features East Indian rosewood back and sides and a Sitka spruce top, but that's where the tradition ends! The body is artfully bound with figured Hawaiian Koa and includes a comfortable black arm bevel. An elliptical sound hole is also bound in laser-cut Koa and tipped to an oblique angle, and a special oval sound port on the bass side provides presence for the player. The ebony bridge and 22-fret fingerboard contouring are also unique. Each OMC Artinger 1 is stage ready with an installed Martin Gold Plus Natural I pickup.
