We heard from our friend Laurence Juber this morning.
The double Grammy-winning guitarist dropped by One Man’s Guitar to check out the new site, and then dropped us a line to let us know about his new guitar, and tell us that our copy of his latest CD is on the way.
The album was recorded entirely with his Martin OMC-44K LJ. It was made in Martin’s custom shop and features Hawaiian koa wood and special ultra-light construction for maximum resonance.
It was also available to the public in a limited edition of 25 guitars, available exclusively through Wildwood Guitars of Louisville, Colorado.
But LJ let us know he has a new personal custom on order. It will be identical to his OMC-18 LJ, only with a top made from the high altitude Swiss spruce that debuted on a small number of special Martins this past January, like the Custom Shop’s own CS-OM-13.
We can’t wait to LJ’s new axe on stage and CD!
Wow. They have some great guitars there. Thanks for the look. LJ is a favorite and they have three of those custom Martins available on their site right now – including a lefty!
On the two right handed versions, LJ recorded a short video describing each guitar.
Good luck with your new website. It looks very nice so far.
