A Fingerpicker's Dream Guitar ...

A smaller body and hand-voiced X-bracing gives the Doolin OM more focused midrange sound, without sacrificing bass response, and incredible balance across the entire 4-octave range of this instrument. This is a fingerpicker's dream guitar, and they have made several with a 1-7/8" neck to give more room for intricate contrapuntal playing. It's smaller size also makes it more comfortable to hold for some players. The neck joins at the 19th fret, allowing comfortable left-hand positions in all registers - the thumb can stay behind the neck all the way to the 22nd fret. Doolin steel-string guitars also feature a Pinless Bridge Design.
