{"product_id":"new-charles-merrill-om-240","title":"Charles Merrill OM","description":"Charles Merrill is one of those \"hidden gem\" kind of luthiers. His guitars, made one at a time, are consistently among the best sounding acoustics available - at any price. He has extensively studied many great vintage Martin 000's and 00's and quite definitely has figured out what makes them sound the way they do. This rosewood OM is no exception. It is loud, full, even, and articulate - in every position along the neck, and oozes with warm and woody overtones. Merrill's neck design is a vintage inspired mild \"V\" shape with a definite center line; it is comfortable in the hand, and neither too large or small. The body is constructed of Indian rosewood and Sitka spruce, and accentuated with  black cherry binding, and a tasteful abalone soundhole rosette (in a 1-7-1 style 18 arrangement). Ebony fingerboard, bridge, and bridge pins; Paua fingerboard dot inlays, bone nut and fully compensated saddle. Tortoise-shell celluloid bevel-edged and polished pickguard, and Gotoh open geared tuning machines. 1 11\/16 inch nut width.  Infinitely responsive, this guitar is a fingerstylist's dream.\u003cbr\u003eWith deluxe hard shell case\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sold\"\u003eSOLD\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"MERRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53610252501358,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0979\/3660\/5550\/files\/merril_main.jpg?v=1790962779","url":"https:\/\/folkwaymusic.com\/products\/new-charles-merrill-om-240","provider":"Folkway Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
