This Bourgeois Vintage OM Custom delivers a real presence that belies its size. Dana's past experience restoring pre-war OMs influenced his build technique of this model. Both sides of the X-brace are scalloped for a little more depth in the bottom register, and his neck angle placement and the neck itself contribute to a bigger sound, as does the use of hot hide glue. Of course the Adirondack top doesn't hurt either, particularly coupled with the exceptional Indian Rosewood back and sides here, both with a gloss finish. This feels great as well with a 1 3/4" nut width and of course the great OM size. Hard case included.
