A premium blend of vintage tone and elegant design.
The Martin Custom Shop OM Style 41 VTS is a high-end, meticulously crafted instrument that combines traditional Martin tone with stunning aesthetics. The Adirondack spruce top, treated with VTS (Vintage Tone System), provides the dynamic range, clarity, and responsiveness that Martin guitars are known for. Paired with hand-selected East Indian rosewood back and sides, this guitar offers a rich, resonant sound with remarkable projection. Dressed up with 40-style rosettes and custom abalone inlays, this guitar is as much a showpiece as it is a performer.
VTS Adirondack Spruce Top for Dynamic Range and Clarity
The top of this OM Style 41 is made from premium Adirondack spruce, treated with Martin's Vintage Tone System (VTS). This system ages the wood to emulate the characteristics of a vintage guitar, offering enhanced responsiveness and a dynamic, balanced tone. Whether fingerpicking or strumming, the VTS top delivers the clarity and projection needed for any playing style.
East Indian Rosewood for Rich, Resonant Sound
The back and sides of this Custom Shop OM are crafted from East Indian rosewood, chosen for its ability to produce warm, full-bodied tones. The rosewood's natural resonance complements the brightness of the Adirondack top, creating a well-rounded tonal palette. The auditorium body shape ensures the guitar delivers ample volume and presence, making it ideal for both studio and live settings.
Custom Appointments for Elegance and Class
This guitar is adorned with premium appointments, including a 40-style rosette, grained ivoroid binding, and custom abalone fretboard inlays. The 1930-style belly bridge with a long saddle adds to the guitar's vintage appeal, while the CF Martin block abalone logo on the headstock completes the elegant design. Every detail is crafted to provide both visual and tonal excellence.
