The Pinnacle of Elegance: Martin Custom Shop 41-Style OM in Cocobolo & Italian Alpine Spruce

The Guitar Sanctuary is honored to present one of the most exquisite instruments to ever leave the Nazareth workshop: a Martin Custom Shop 41-Style Orchestra Model. This instrument is a masterclass in tonal balance and visual splendor, pairing the legendary chime of Italian Alpine Spruce with the deep, percussive richness of premium Cocobolo.

The "Holy Grail" Tonewood Pairing
The heart of this Custom Shop build is the Italian Alpine Spruce top. Sourced from the same forests that provided wood for the legendary Italian violin makers of the 17th century, Alpine Spruce is prized for its high velocity of sound and incredible stiffness-to-weight ratio. When paired with the dense, rosewood-like complexity of Cocobolo, the result is an OM with massive headroom, crystalline trebles, and a hauntingly beautiful sustain that lingers long after the note is struck.

Style 41: A Heritage of Luxury
As a "Style 41" build, this guitar is adorned with the iconic abalone pearl inlays around the top and fingerboard extension—a hallmark of Martin’s most prestigious models. The gold hardware, European Flamed Maple binding, and intricate abalone "Reduced Hexagon" fingerboard inlays reflect a level of artistry that is only achieved within the walls of the Martin Custom Shop. This is an instrument designed for the player who demands the absolute best in both sound and aesthetic presentation.
