Just Arrived – from wood we personally selected last September on our trip to Maine to visit with Dana Bourgeois, another beautiful new OMS Cutaway in high grade quarter-sawn BRAZILIAN ROSEWOOD with *AGED TONE* ADIRONDACK Spruce!
The OMS model is similar to the classic 12 fret 000 size guitars and embody the simple elegance and grace players have come to expect from vintage versions, but with the added dimension of Bourgeois’ quality craftsmanship and voicing. The OMS has a slotted headstock design with side mount Waverly 3-on-a-tree bronze Waverly tuners. With a 25.5 ” scale, 1 3/4 nut width and 2 5/16 bridge spacing you’ll feel right at home with this guitar as soon as you pick it up.
Just in case you did not hear us last time, let me repeat: The Aged Tone guitars from Dana Bourgeois are the most exciting development in acoustic guitars in recent memory. We like our guitars old. These new guitars sound old. Face it, old guitars sound better, and folks in the guitar industry are forever trying to find a secret elixir, a time machine, and all manner of things to try to get these shiny new guitars to sound 60 years old – to sound “aged”. Dana Bourgeois’ new “Aged Tone” guitars are the real deal. Count us among the converted. Long story short: Dana’s expertly voiced tops are heated (“roasted”, cooked”,”baked”, “thermally cured” – choose your verb) in an oxygen-free kiln until they turn a golden brown. The wood stiffens, and gets lighter in weight while it goes through some structural and tonal transformation. Then the guitars are finished with an ultra-thin and hard cyanoacrylate finish and constructed with hide glue.
Fast forward to our showroom and your ears: The guitars have an explosively resonant fullness that goes beyond “volume”.
The sound is RICH, the lows are low and clean, the mid-ranges sparkle, and the trebles are thick. It’s a marvelous guitar in every way.
