Overview
Martin pairs a bold vintage sunburst with modern playability in the OMC Modern Burst, a cutaway acoustic-electric. The OM body adds projection and balance, and faux mother-of-pearl inlays and satin chrome tuners add a refined touch.
Looks and a balanced voice are the reason to look: crisp highs and warm mids from spruce and sapele, with upper fret access from the cutaway. The limit is documentation, since warranty is deferred to the seller.
Who it's for
A gigging acoustic player who wants upper fret reach, a tuner and a case will use all of it on the road. Buyers wanting documented warranty terms should check with the seller first.
Pros and cons
- OM cutaway for upper fret access
- E1 electronics with built-in tuner
- Performing Artist neck, fast taper

Performance notes
A spruce top and sapele body deliver crisp highs and warm mids, and scalloped X-bracing adds responsiveness. The OM cutaway body offers projection and balance. The built-in tuner checks pitch quickly, even between songs.
