Frequently Asked Questions
The Ambertone finish is thinner, allowing more of the wood’s natural resonance to project, resulting in a slightly warmer and more mature tone compared to a gloss finish.
Martin’s selected hardwood neck profile is generally comfortable, but the OM body shape’s narrower waist might feel a bit snug for those with very large hands.
The Ambertone finish and left-handed configuration are the key differences; the core construction and materials are the same as a standard OM28, delivering a similar tonal character.
