All talks about the looks of this gorgeous Custom Shop Martin OM-45 aside -- holy smokes, is this a powerful OM! As you'd expect, it's got the balance, clarity and warmth any fingerstylist would demand; but the stiff Swiss Spruce top takes a flatpick especially well, providing a very satisfying, round "pop" when single-note runs are played higher up the fingerboard. If you gravitate towards a small-bodied guitar for playability, but you want the projection and strength of a dreadnought, consider this exceptional OM-45. Priced with Martin 533E hard case.
