now we have two co # 1's...

 

Stonebridge 32SM-OM wow what an incredible guitar!! both are equally good... not surprising both are priced at the same MSRP so a similar level of quality should be expected

 

not as flashy, very old school but the build quality is excellent and the tone and playability are superb

 

oh and it has a fishman system installed so yes you can plug it in :)

thanks :)

I am making a switch over to mainly acoustic for several reasons...

First is the fact that I feel like gigging again.... BUT, I dont have the time to dedicate to a band, and all the rehearsal, drama etc etc that goes along with it....

Going into acoustic I can do some solo work, or some duets with friends in some small caffee's.... not as exciting, but at least it can get me out there and playing again..... I love playing electric, but just playing in my house has lost its charm....

Beautiful. Sounds very tight and focused. Isn't that from Germany, or somewhere in Europe? They constantly get good reviews.

 

 

yeah..... handmade in the czech republic I think.... they are very nice, priced in the same area as an equivalent larrivee would be....

 

I believe some guys on candyrat records use them and they are gaining more exposure, but I guess for now they remain a small boutique brand

Damn! That was quick!
:D

Sounds great on the vid. Handmade for the same price as the Larivee!! That's tits!!


Best acoustics I ever played was a Bourgeois and a Collings. But they were way out of my price range!!
:o:D

Congratulations!!



thanks :)

its really not a better instrument than my larrivee.... but it suits my playing and is very comfortable, so in my eyes they are even....

the larrivee is definitely a more prestigious looking, and huge sounding guitar.... but this OM has this really cool pre-war martin vibe, and plays extremely nice...

I feel very lucky to own both of them, unfortunately now I will have to sell some gear to compensate for its purchase... I normally wouldnt make an impulse buy, but its not like I can just go anywhere and grab an off the shelf handmade acoustic and have it sound the same..... :(
