Martin OM-1GT One Series Acoustic Guitar (with Case), Main
Martin OM-1GT One Series Acoustic Guitar (with Case), Main
This Martin creates a brighter midrange and less deep bass than the D-1GT model. With extraordinary craftsmanship and playability, this is a great value.

What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Hybrid scalloped X bracing More projection and tonal clarity; lighter weight
Solid Sitka spruce top Projects rich, crisp and responsive tone
Solid sapele back and sides Rich, warm, and focused midrange; added sustain
Modified low oval neck shape Thin, fast feel with even tapering towards bridge

The OM-1GT model is designed with Martin's legendary tone, craftsmanship and playability with extraordinary value. It features solid sapele spruce backs and sides, a solid Sitka spruce top and is polished to a high gloss. Tonally, the advanced "hybrid" scalloped X-bracing delivers a powerful punch - clear ringing treble and deep bass - unique to Martin's 1 Series guitars. The Martin OM-1GT Orchestra Model produces a tone that is brighter in the midrange, less deep in the bass and clear articulation in all positions.

Yes I would replace with a like product. I am very satisfied with the Martin OM-GT. I plays like a dream. Maybe some day will get a better Martin but for now this is all I need.

Sound
I found the sound is very full. I do not see a difference with the Guitar being an X Series where the lows are not a pronounced. Nice and full sound. I play an acoustic blues style and this fits perfect. Not bulky, fits very well and easy to play.

Features
No features, I do like the Gloss Finish on the top. Has Satin on sides and back. Guess the size and Shape would be a feature. I really enjoy playing the 000 size.

Ease of Use
Easy to play, produces the Martin Sound. Nice.. The neck size fits my hand very well.

Quality
Opened the box then case. Inspected not a blemish anywhere. Perfect finish. Gloss top and Satin sides and Back. The neck is a Stratobond, little strange at first but very easy to play. Tuners are tight, guitar was in tune right out of the box. Not sure how rugged it is, time will tell?

Value
I think it worth the price, right at the range of this type of Guitar.

Manufacturer Support
Gave a 10 even though I never used. The Web site is very informative and you can find pretty much anything you want there.

The Wow Factor
I have it! I bought from ZZOUNDS. This is the… read more 5th Guitar I have bought from ZZOUNDS and I am very satisfied with the products and Customer Service assistance. I had an OME-GT and it was stolen. So I bought this and I still want a pickup installed. Will do that at a later time. Would replace if stolen again.
