Woah woah woah. CONGRATS. I know you're preoccupied with it, but I think we AGFers are gonna need more than "has it all"

Congrats again. Can't imagine how ecstatic you must be.

Congratulations!

I hope that your guitar turned out to be everything that you hoped it would be and musically takes you to places not yet journeyed.

I need for you to play this. I can't believe what I'm hearing.
The first thing that strikes you is the incredible sustain from the lightest touch. The bass (Oh the bass) is full rich & deep but doesn't swamp the midrange or the very sweet fat trebles. It has a perfectly balanced tonal spectrum with a massive dynamic range. It begs for you to play slow melodies so that the notes ring on & just hang in the air before you. What more can I say - a truly wonderful guitar.

Cheers
Vic

Hi vicov,
That is great news! I am happy you love your new OM. What are your thoughts for the manzer wedge?

One touch of the open string was enough for me as I unboxed it upon arrival... congratulations Vic, it's gorgeous!

It's not really noticeable in use. I'll have a better idea when I am able to do a side by side against a similarly sized guitar (this OMC is the biggest guitar I have).
What I can say for sure is that it's not detrimental to tone.

Cheers
Vic

I can't wait to see you and steveh compare your guitars. That will be a very entertaining get together for us all. I assume you two are friends of course.
