Martin OMC-X1E Acoustic-Electric Guitar – Jett Black

Description

Blacked-out OM Guitar with Onboard Electronics

Since opening for business in 1833, Martin has focused on two things — playing experience and tone. In each guitar, these two guiding principles are visible. The OMC-X1E is no exception either, and may just be your favorite Martin yet. Made entirely from Jett Black HPL, the body creates a warm, balanced tone. Scalloped top bracing lets the top resonate more freely, improving articulation and projection. The body is outfitted with a birch laminate neck and Richlite fingerboard for breezy playability. Meanwhile, Fishman electronics re-create a natural plugged-in tone. Whether you’re a stay-at-home musician or a seasoned road dog, this miniature Martin is sure to become your go-to acoustic.

Performing Artist neck profile makes for easy playability

Have a thing for sleek necks? You’re in luck because the OMC-X1E has one of Martin’s awesome Performing Artist series necks. A favorite, this neck profile is light and speedy. You will love its slim profile, and rejoice when long playing sessions don’t wear out your hand. Whether you need to get through a long set or extended recording session, you’ll be glad you OMC-X1E has a Performance Artist neck.

A buzzworthy fretboard, without the fret buzz

Here’s the skinny on the revolutionary composite fretboard material Martin used on the OMC-X1E: it’s awesome. Unlike wood, Richlite is unaffected by changes in temperature or humidity. No more winter pitting or spring-swell fret buzz! It’s also hard enough to be used as cutting surfaces in the most demanding professional kitchens on earth. The result is a great feeling fretboard that adds killer sustain to your OMC-X1E.
