Default Somogyi OO and OM builds for TAMCO UK.

Following the thread asking why there are no Somogyi build threads here are some photos of the two builds under way for TAMCO.

An OM and an OO both in European spruce and African blackwood.

First the OM.

This promises to be a very interesting thread. Ervin somogyi builds guitars that can reach such heights that are unsurpassed by any guitar built by any other luthier for fingerstyle that i have ever played.

Are there photos of the guitars while they are still being built? These look basically finished.

I consider that Somogyi guitars are among the best of best on the market today.
Congratulations Trevor, Is not easy to have the opportunity to compare those two models, new and build with the same woods. That will be an incredible nice gift for your clients and Tamco!
Wish that you could share some videos with us in future.

Wow, the OM looks like it's only a setup away from sending out.

Well, when you receive the guitar would you mind taking it apart and putting it back together so that we can see what's going on? Thank you in advance. (You must feel like a kid in a candy store!)
