Default Preston Thompson (PKT) OM

Sale value $6700 obo

Amazingly warm & open, listed originally for $7200, but, I am open to offers. This is a guitar you can play blues or ragtime on, or Beethoven, & the OM size is so comfortable. It is in mint shape (2017 build). I am letting go of a few, in order to make room for something new.

Sound Links from Hilltop Music, the original vendor:

https://youtu.be/NCSMHmMu7EA

Tunnel 14 Redwood top (from a collection of tops which were milled from the giant beams of an old decommissioned railway tunnel, beautiful & unique tonewood)
Cuban mahogany back and sides (this is more like rosewood in tone than its counterparts, & more difficult to source these days)
Ebony fingerboard and bridge
Bone nut and saddle
Scalloped and forward-shifted X bracing
Modified V neck profile
1 3/4" nut, 2 5/16" spacing at saddle
Abalone mystic snowflake fingerboard inlays
MOP and abalone torch peghead inlay
Abalone and ivroid rosette
Satin nitro finish
Tortoise binding front and back
Herringbone top purfling
Waverly nickel butterbean machines
White MOP side position markers
25.4" scale
Harptone HSC

That's a really nice guitar. I'm a big fan of Cuban Mahogany.

Mighty pretty PKT OM

Spectacular woods!

Anyone know why Martin called them "Mystic Snowflake" inlays?
