Martin OM-28 John Mayer Signature Series..
here we have the John Mayer martin..this is different from the OMJM that is now offered by Martin Guitars..this is actually a limited run of 404pieces....this is the second piece i know that is in Singapore..and both owners are keeping it...as the price has appreciated upwards over the years..
the difference is the 1/4 bracing thickness on the braces..the special inlay on the fretboard..headstock as well as the bridge...in terms of tone..generally the OMJM sounds pretty close to this piece..this is a collectors item..I know that ebay have even sold this at almost S$10k..yes its crazy..
I've re-setup this guitar and fitted a FMI saddle on this and it sounds pretty sweet now.
Top is engelman spruce so its warmer yet sweeter with an original Fishman UST pickup..
we start off with a YOU Tube video.
