2015 Kim Walker Style A Deluxe OM
Here we have an incredible OM by one of the most sought after luthiers in the world.
This is the most impressive sounding OM we've ever had the pleasure of playing. Rich and warm sounding with plenty of sustain and clarity - almost piano-like. Beautifully set up with a nice low action.
Kim Walker currently has a backorder list of 9 years and prices starting from $61000. However according to his website, he has closed his order book as he's too far behind.
