Nathaniel Wright builds his instruments in McMinnville, Tennessee, using pre-war Martin standards as his guide: hot hide glue, forward-shifted bracing and period-correct specifications. This OW-42 Deluxe is one of his most ambitious projects: a bearclaw Adirondack red spruce top over master-grade Madagascar rosewood, a hand-cut torch inlay, solid abalone purfling and Waverly banjo-style tuners with solid mother-of-pearl buttons.
Built in March 2023. It weighs next to nothing and sounds every bit as lively as that suggests.
As-new condition. Supplied with a Silver Creek hard case.

Description

Nathaniel Wright is based in McMinnville, Tennessee, and has built a solid reputation in the American boutique guitar-building community in just a few years. His approach is simple: "pre-war" Martin construction standards, the best possible materials, and a level of craftsmanship that is nowhere reflected in the price compared to the big names. Hot hide glue throughout the construction, forward-shifted bracing, T-bar neck reinforcement, and an attention to detail normally reserved for instruments costing two to three times as much. His build slots are in high demand, and his guitars rarely appear for sale.

This OW-42 Deluxe is one of his most refined builds. The model is based on the ultra-rare Martin OM-45 DeLuxe — one of the most ornate flat-top instruments Martin ever produced — but executed here with Style 42 ornamentation. The structural specifications follow the early 1930s OM blueprint with a 1-3/4" nut width and 2-5/16" string spacing.

The top is bearclaw Adirondack red spruce with forward-shifted scalloped bracing. The back and sides are master-grade Madagascar rosewood of a quality that has been practically impossible to source since the early 2000s. The headplate is cut from the same piece of Madagascar rosewood as the back and sides. The torch inlay in the headstock is hand-cut by Wright himself, as is all the solid abalone purfling. The pickguard is a Holter model with Martin De Luxe-style inlay. The tuning pegs are gold engraved Waverly banjo tuners with solid mother-of-pearl buttons.

Completed March 2023. Excellent condition. Comes with a Silver Creek hard case.
