The body of the OOM model has much in common with Orchestra guitars (compact size, body silhouette and depth), from which it differs by the attachment of a mahogany neck to the body at the 12th fret, different placement of the fingerboard and altered ribbing. It thus offers a very similar, yet brighter sound than the Orchestra models.
Furch CNR System two-way neck bracing increases the strength, stability and durability of the neck. The excellent acoustic properties of the instruments are enhanced by the special ribbing on the soundboard. The attractive appearance of the instrument is emphasised by the faux ivory body binding and the double-ring rosette with contrasting black and white lines. Orientation on the ebony fingerboard is facilitated by white mother-of-pearl side and front position markers. Chrome-plated gears with a gear ratio of 1:18 guarantee stable tuning. The instrument comes in a high-quality Hiscox case.
At the customer's request, the guitar can be fitted with L.R. Baggs electronics. For more information about the price and model of electronics, please contact our customer service line or specialists in the shop.
Few Czech products have such a worldwide reputation as Furch guitars. The company started in 1981 in one of the many garages of socialist Czechoslovakia, still illegal at the time. Today, the company's acoustic guitars are played by Suzanne Vega, Glen Hansard, David Knopfler, Aneta Langerová, David Koller, Xavier Baumaxa and many others. Furch guitars are best advertised by their reputation.
