To me, the SJ that he brought seemed really nice for singer/songwriter type of stuff while the OM seemed a great match for solo instrumental stuff. I think it's about matching the instrument to the way you play, what you play, and how you like to hear it. Or maybe I was drawn to the OM partially because of the tonewoods used (BRW and Adi).

This build looks really nice so far!
Thanks for sharing your exp with Drew's guitars! ADI/BRW is a great Combo~ Drew's recent SJs sounds better than those earlier SJs. IMO, Olson style SJ is a quite versatile guitar that could handle many different playing styles but it is best suited for Fingerstyle as Jim described.
