NGD - OM-21, and a hello!

[birkenweg42]

My second Martin was an OM21 after playing an OM15 for a couple of years. I still remember marveling at the richness of the sound when I played it first. I used it mostly with my folk band and some fingerstyle solos. Great memories.
Enjoy your new guitar. You did good!

Welcome! I am deeply envious of that OM-21. Beauty!

That notwithstanding, the OM-21 looks q, and has clearly gone to a good home. Congratulations!

No, the Waverly pins are priced per set of six. The Ebony set is $8.66, while the bone sets go for $30+, so it’s in line with other nice pins. But, then there’s shipping. I first found the ebony pins on Amazon — to be fulfilled by StewMac, but with prime shipping they were $19! Since I would effectively be paying about $10 shipping either way, I went back to the StewMac site and added other goodies to my cart to consolidate under one order.

BTW, the ebony pins are really nice. The heads are polished and they fit in the OM-21 is perfect.

Ebony pins would be a nice and inexpensive upgrade, then. If/when I get a Martin (cautiously optimistic that it's now a matter of when), it'll get a set of nicer bridge pins.

Very nice guitar. Enjoy.
