{"product_id":"collings-om3","title":"Collings OM3","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe OM3 is the dressiest of the three standard Collings OMs: East Indian rosewood back and sides under a Sitka spruce top, with an abalone rosette, ivoroid binding with b\/w\/b\/w\/b purfling, and ivoroid binding on the fingerboard and peghead too. The ebony board carries no inlay, which leaves the binding and the abalone to do the work, and gold Waverly tuners, a chevron backstrip and ebony pins with abalone dots finish it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnderneath it is a 14-fret OM, 15\" wide and a little over 4\" deep, with pre-war scalloped X-bracing, a Modified V neck and a 1 11\/16\" bone nut. Collings points out that the OM has become the shape of choice for steel-string fingerstyle players, and that flatpickers take to it as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the same body in rosewood with herringbone trim, look at the OM2H, or the OM2H T for the Traditional Series build.
