Martin OM21 Special

Martin logo

Second-hand

Historically, 21 styling has represented the most simple appointments offered with rosewood back and sides and a spruce top. The OM-21 Special closely replicates this plain but beautiful style by blending rosewood bindings, a fine patterned Herringbone rosette, a nitrate tortoiseshell pickguard, ebony fingerboard and pyramid bridge. The result is a stunning guitar that pays homage to the Golden Era styling. Simply stunning is the only way to describe this guitar in terms of both looks and tone, whilst the classic combination of tonewoods yields beautiful rich bass frequencies, as well as shimmering trebles, with an extremely balanced overall sound.
