The Guitar...
Nick will be building me one of his “The OMC” models with a Venetian cutaway...
The larger size is to increase the body volume to compensate for the volume lossed from the cutaway and create an aesthetically pleasing plantilla. I believe that he has been making his most recent embodiment of the OMC for about the last 10-15-years. Nick’s guitar designs have evolved from strict Nazareth traditional design over the years which will become evident as you watch this build. I haven’t seen a Franklin Guitar Co. build thread of his work here on AGF for about 8-years now. |
That may have been my ol’ thread.

Regardless, Nick was great to work with, and the guitar truly wondrous. Enjoy the path.
