This is the new The Podium Custom Shop OOO Mahogany. It came about when we were musing about the old 17's, and thinking we could take an idea or two from those and some of new 18GE's and make a killer OOO.
Since we had something on our Martin rep, we decided we should get something out of it and the result is The Podium Custom Shop OOO Mahogany.
The Podium Custom Shop OOO Mahogany is made from Honduran mahogany. The stain we used is like the 18GE's with a rich reddish hue rather than the more brownish red of the old 17's and we are using the traditional Martin nitro gloss finish. We added a bone nut and saddle, upgraded traditional tuners and went with traditional bracing but with the modern neck joint to add clarity in a mahogany topped guitar.
The guitar is built so that the playing feel is fast, loose and high performance and the action is set up for versatility so flat pickers are going to like them as well as the fingerstyle players for which they are designed.
