Tippin OMT Art Deco Guitar (2005) SOLD

This is the exact guitar listed on Bill's website as an example of his OMT. This guitar was Bill's personal guitar for a time. Here's how Bill describes this model:
For those who prefer the traditional OM, our 14 fret OMT is a great choice for the finger picking style of playing and studio recording. This guitar has a traditional 25.4” scale and a slightly deeper body, allowing for more versatile styles of playing. The OMT gives you all of the well balanced qualities of the OM, but with a richer fullness of tone.
