Default More pomelle sapelle. Beneteau OM at TAMCO OK

Some may have noticed my predilection for pomelle sapele re my recent photos of Michael Propsom's OM and the build thread by David Wren. Here's one that arrived today by Marc Beneteau, another beauty.

Gorgeous! That back looks almost identical to that of the OM I sent you, Trevor. When you next correspond with Marc, please ask him where he bought the sapele. Thanks.

I played that guitar Mr Propsom, it sounded wonderful.

The new Pomelle Sapele Beneteau looks beautiful.

Smile Nice Beneteau

I think my next guitar will be a Beneteau OM. I love the natural, woody sound of Marc's guitars and I'm still very, very happy with my Beneteau Concert Standard (it shines in DADGAD).

I'm guessing this one will sell very fast.

Thanks for the post and nice photos.
