Martin OMC-LJ Pro (Custom Signature Editions)

For his most recent of several Custom Artist Editions, guitar virtuoso Laurence Juber chose flamed big-leaf maple to provide “presence” rather than “brightness.” The Adirondack spruce top provides the full bottom associated with vintage Martin tone. But, when paired with maple, the bass is much more defined and the midrange more prominent and complex, with a smooth, almost burnished quality to the high end. With on board electronics, this is an ideal cutaway performance and recording instrument.
