Spruce, rosewood, and mahogany

You just can't beat the bold brilliance of solid spruce on top of solid rosewood. You'll be instantly taken by the huge sound of the OM-21's solid East Indian rosewood back and sides. It's a wood that brings out all of the power and nuance in technique. And it's a favorite among fingerstylists for just that reason. What's more, the OM-21 is topped with scalloped X-braced solid spruce, adding crisp and powerful overtones. When you imagine what a Martin OM is supposed to sound like, this is it.

Performing Artist neck taper

Whether you need to survive long recording sessions or plan to play out late into the night, you'll be glad you have a Martin OM-21 acoustic guitar. The OM-21 features a modified low-oval neck profile with the Performing Artist taper. As Martin puts it, the OM-21's Performing Artist Taper is "great for strumming up near the nut or sliding into leads further down the fingerboard." This slim profile is easy on your hand, allowing you to play those extended sessions in comfort.

Well-suited for both picking and fingerstyle

While every guitarist has their own preference, most guitarists at will agree the OM-21 is equally suited for both fingerstyle and flatpicking. Its 1.75" nut width gives you that extra bit of string spacing that really helps fingerstyle players, without being so wide that you can't play lead runs with a pick. Get the OM-21 in your hands, and we're sure you'll be impressed no matter how you play it.
