This instument is an OM-1 but built a little lighter, with Adirondack braces and not tongue brace with a standard scale length and a top voiced for more complexity with a pyramid bridge. This one sings up the neck and has nice playing feel to it. The standard scale length combined with a lighter build really turned out fantastic. Its has nice loose feel and its easy to fly around on it. But as wonderful a fingerstyle guitar as it is, it's versatile and the flatpickers are also going to swoon. Singer-songwriters are going love its woody, sweet voice for strumming and the clarity with which it rings through the voice without overwhelming it. It has a big, articulate woody bass, substative and clear midrange the ring and volume and pop in the trebles that Collings are know for as well. Simple but elegant looking, Collings workmanship is without peer as usual. Bottom line is that it is another masterpiece from Collings guaranteed to make your heart beat a little faster.
