Default 2021 Circa OM-18 SOLD

Essentially brand new, 1 3/4 nut, long scale, shadetop, gently figured mahogany. I am in a major corporate downsizing mode because I am running out of space. This guitar is as fantastic as you would expect; the sound is as good as every Circa I've played, or every modern OM I've ever played for that matter. It happens that when there is a 1930 Martin in the house that some extremely difficult decisions have to be made. Edit: Top is red spruce.

Comes with a perfectly functional but non-fancy TKL type case. All AGF rules apply of course.

Edit: Nut width 1 3/4, scale 25.5, saddle spacing 2 5/16.

Wow, that's a beauty Matthew and I'm sure it plays and sounds wonderful. Best of luck, this shouldn't last long.

This one is something else!

Got to ask, but I don’t imagine you’re entertaining trades plus cash coming your way? Full scale purge?

Thx.

Beautiful piece. I notice the bridge pin arrangement is straight (vintage style) as opposed to angled to match the saddle direction like many other Circas, Collings, etc. Was that a special request on this specific guitar?

I don't know. I've seen him do it on a fair bit of his output.
