Martin
OMJM John Mayer Special Edition Features at a Glance:
Englemann spruce top with vintage toner and lacquer
finish
East Indian rosewood back and sides for warm, rich tone
Spanish cedar neck with African ebony fingerboard
Factory installed Martin Gold Plus electronics
Includes vintage style case and signed/numbered
interior label
Englemann spruce top with vintage toner and lacquer finish
Like its predecessor, the OMJM John Mayer Special Edition features a top of
solid Engelmann spruce with specially designed "hybrid" bracing that
enhances the rich, full sound. Body appointments are also similar, with a Style
45 rosette featuring a center ring of colorful paua (abalone) shell, bold
herringbone around the top, grained ivoroid binding throughout and a
traditional OM teardrop polished and beveled tortoiseshell pickguard. To
enhance the beauty of the wood, a specially formulated vintage
"aging" toner is applied and then the polished nitocellulose gloss
lacquer completes the picture.
East Indian rosewood back and sides for warm, rich tone
There was never a question about which tone woods to use for the OMJM John
Mayer Signature Edition back and sides. East Indian rosewood is world renowned
for its warm, rich tone. It has a wonderful harmonic structure that produces
incredibly smooth overtones when combined with the spruce top and hybrid
bracing. Black and white purfling surrounds the back, and there's an HD-style
"zigzag" center strip. Other features include a black African ebony
bridge with compensated TUSQ saddle, Style 45 white bridgepins inlaid with
abalone and that jewel-like nitrocellulose gloss lacquer finish.
Spanish cedar neck with African ebony fingerboard
The OMJM John Mayer Signature Edition's Spanish cedar neck with diamond volute
is carved specifically with playing comfort in mind, combining 1-11/16"
width and low profile shape for easy fretting. The East Indian rosewood
headplate sports Martin's Old Style decal in silver rather than the familiar
gold and nickel Gotoh open-geared tuners with butterbean knobs. The black
African ebony fingerboard highlights 1/8" mother-of-pearl position markers
and John Mayer's signature inlaid in pearl between the 19th and 20th frets.
Factory installed Martin Gold Plus electronics
Many acoustics - and yes, even some premium quality instruments - come with
optional electronics packages or even "off-the-shelf" units which can
save some money, but ultimately compromises the amplified sound. For the OMJM
John Mayer Signature Edition, the Martin luthiers carefully selected a Martin
Gold Plus system that would be factory installed in the guitar. This results in
an amazingly detailed amplified sound that's never harsh or brittle sounding.
Includes vintage style case and signed/numbered interior label
Of course, a guitar this special comes with a special vintage Geib style
hardshell case to protect your OMJM Signature Edition for years - or more
accurately, decades to come. Making it even more distinctive, Mayer created a
unique art deco inspired monogram that's embroidered right onto the case.
What's more, each and every OMJM bears an interior label with the signatures of
both John and Martin chairman C. F. Martin IV, and is individually numbered in
sequence.
