Max Spohn OM-C - Swiss Moon Spruce & Brazilian Rosewood

Description Max Spohn stands among the most exciting and inspiring voices in the new generation of acoustic luthiers — a craftsman whose instruments radiate artistic vision, technical mastery, and an almost spiritual connection to wood and sound. Drawing from years of study, mentorship, and relentless pursuit of tonal perfection, Max has quietly built a reputation for guitars that are as visually arresting as they are sonically transcendent. His work merges time-honored tradition with modern refinement, creating instruments that feel bespoke in every sense of the word. This OM-C from Max Spohn is a breathtaking example of his craft — an elegant and deeply resonant Orchestra Model built with a rare Swiss Moon Spruce top and stunning Brazilian Rosewood back and sides. Swiss Moon Spruce, prized for its perfect grain structure and tonal clarity, offers an articulate response with a luminous high end and haunting sustain. Paired with the dark, powerful overtones of Brazilian Rosewood, this guitar has a voice that is rich, open, and impossibly three-dimensional — a sound that seems to bloom effortlessly from the first touch of the strings. Every detail of this guitar reflects Max’s meticulous attention and artistic sensibility. The Honduran Mahogany neck, carved in a comfortable C profile, meets the body at the 14th fret, while a graceful Manzer Wedge body design ensures exceptional comfort without sacrificing volume or low-end response. The ebony fingerboard and bridge offer sleek contrast to the warm woods, while ebony bindings, heel cap, and end graft create a subtle, modern edge. Delicate black/maple/black purfling frames the body, guiding the eye to the custom inlaid rosette and ebony-bound soundhole — a signature of Spohn’s understated yet striking aesthetic. The headstock is a showpiece in itself — Swiss Moon Spruce veneer with a custom inlay, and a Brazilian Rosewood backstrap that speaks to the guitar’s refinement. Functional beauty continues with Scheller brushed brass tuning machines adorned with ebony buttons, a scalloped nut for optimal string spacing, and medium EVO gold frets that promise long-lasting playability and effortless feel. With a 25” scale length, 1 3/4” nut width, and 2 1/4” bridge spacing, this OM-C offers a balanced, responsive playing experience, equally suited for fingerstyle nuance or dynamic strumming. Weighing in at 4 lb 4 oz and protected by a Hiscox Pro II case, this instrument is not merely a guitar — it is a reflection of Max Spohn’s devotion to his craft, a rare and extraordinary creation destined to inspire for generations.
