The OM, or “Orchestra Model,” has evolved into one of the most versatile and beloved acoustic guitar designs ever created. Originally introduced over 80 years ago, it’s now a favorite among fingerstyle players for its balance, clarity, and responsiveness on steel strings—while flatpickers and lead players appreciate its comfortable feel and full access to all 20 frets, especially when paired with a graceful cutaway. With its compact body and relatively shallow depth, the Collings OM is equally at home onstage or on the couch, offering an immediate, well-balanced tone that responds effortlessly to a wide range of playing styles. This OM2 takes that classic design to another level, featuring stunning koa back and sides complemented by ivoroid body binding and a butt wedge. Additional refined appointments include an upgraded Adirondack spruce top, a “zipper” backstrip, a detailed 2-style rosette, and elegant diamonds-and-squares fingerboard inlays, giving this guitar both visual sophistication and exceptional playability.
