Gaiero OMC Swiss Alpine Spruce/Osage Orange

Description

This Gaiero OMC (Orchestra Model + Florentine Cutaway) is created with luthier Mark Gaiero's own curvature and measurement, the smallest OM than Somogyi or other apprentices OMs.

Mark applied Somogyi-Esque modern voicing to this body and tweaked that voicing to achieve more headroom. It can handle deep arpeggio to pretty strong strums with ease. Beautiful harmonics are a plus.

A Swiss Alpine Spruce top paired with a quartersawn Osage Orange set on the back and sides for the body, a flame Cherry neck with Katalox bridge and fretboard made a great-sounding guitar, and the greener environment with these Non-Endangered Species.

The aesthetic appointments are genuinely unique, but subtlety is the key here.
Brilliant color, high contrast, and Micro Mosaic pattern is Gaiero's specialty.
