The relatively slimmer body depth gives players a quickness to the sound delivered while also delivering the string to string and bass to treble balance these models are renowned for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe difference between an OM and the 14 fret 000 is scale length. The OM (Orchestra Model) has a longer 25.4” scale length, the same scale length as dreadnought guitars. The 14 fret 000 has the shorter 24.9” scale length. This subtle difference accounts for the unique qualities of each model. The longer OM scale length generally gives these instruments a little more punch and volume, making the OM perfect for players that both flat pick and fingerpick. The 14 Fret 000, with its shorter scale length, is perfect for finger style pickers and blues players. Because the string tension is slightly less, certain techniques like bending strings and blues style riffs are often enhanced. The florentine cutaway is also offered for both the OM and the 000 14 Fret.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBody:\u003cbr\u003e\nTop: Adirondack\u003cbr\u003e\nBack \u0026amp; Sides: Brazilian Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e\nBinding: Brazilian\u003cbr\u003e\nTop Purfling: Custom Top purf -BWBW\u003cbr\u003e\nBack Purfling: BW\u003cbr\u003e\nSide Purfling: BW\u003cbr\u003e\nSoundhole Specs: 3 7\/8\"\u003cbr\u003e\nRosette: 3 Ring Abalone Rossette\u003cbr\u003e\nBack Strip: None\u003cbr\u003e\nTail Wedge: Brazilian\u003cbr\u003e\nTop Bracing Pattern: Advanced X Adirondack\u003cbr\u003e\nTop Bracing: Pre-War Scalloped\u003cbr\u003e\nBack Bracing: Adirondack\u003cbr\u003e\nTongue Brace: Yes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNeck:\u003cbr\u003e\nTruss Rod: 14 Fret Adjustable Single Action\u003cbr\u003e\nPeghead Overlay: Brazilian\u003cbr\u003e\nPeghead Logo: Thompson - Lotus Torch\u003cbr\u003e\nCustom Inlay: None\u003cbr\u003e\nHeadstock Binding: None\u003cbr\u003e\nHeadstock Type: Solid\u003cbr\u003e\nNeck Binding: None\u003cbr\u003e\nVolute: Yes\u003cbr\u003e\nNut: 1 11\/16\"\u003cbr\u003e\n12th Fret: 2 1\/8\"\u003cbr\u003e\nString Spacing: 2 1\/8\"\u003cbr\u003e\nThickness: .840\"\u003cbr\u003e\nProfile: Soft V\u003cbr\u003e\nHeel Cap: Brazilian\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFingerboard:\u003cbr\u003e\nStyle: 28 Style Ebony\u003cbr\u003e\nBinding: Brazilian\u003cbr\u003e\nInlay: Diamonds \u0026amp; Squares (Short Pattern)\u003cbr\u003e\nInlay Material: Abalone (Long Scale)\u003cbr\u003e\nScale: 24.9\"\u003cbr\u003e\nSide Position Markers: 2mm Dots\u003cbr\u003e\nSide Position Material: Black Celluloid\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHardware:\u003cbr\u003e\nEnd Pin\/ Bridge Pins: Ivoroid\u003cbr\u003e\nStrap Button: None\u003cbr\u003e\nBridge Type: Ebony Belly x\/drop in\u003cbr\u003e\nTuning Machines: Nickel w\/ Butterbean Waverly\u003cbr\u003e\nNut Material: Bone\u003cbr\u003e\nSaddle Material\/Style: Bone Compensated\u003cbr\u003e\nStrings: Medium\u003cbr\u003e\nPick Guard: Tortoise OM\u003cbr\u003e\nFret Wire Type: Standard Nickel Silver\u003cbr\u003e\nPickup\/Electronics: None\u003cbr\u003e\nJack Type: None 1\/4\" hole\u003cbr\u003e\nCase: Hardshell TKL\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Area 22 Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45266448384053,"sku":"A-256868E","price":17950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/2606\/3925\/files\/BrOM_01.png?v=1781111054"}],"url":"https:\/\/area22guitars.com\/collections\/preston-thompson-guitars.oembed","provider":"Area 22 Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
