Way more balanced and harmonically complex than the 40 series. Love the original Larrivee bracing and their Sitka/hog guitars. Great demo

You should hear my OM-44 Tommy 😊. I’m with you on the Sitka/hog combo though… best in the business if you ask me. Hope you’re doing well!

Don't forget the 05 select series uses higher grade woods than the 40 series. Although I have seen others state the same preference for the traditional bracing. Everythings horses for courses though really.

@@ubermod5564 thanks both. What I would really love to see and hear is an OO-05

@@tommysixstring5094 I have a 2004 custom 00-05 with a slotted headstock. It looks and sounds awesome, especially fingerstyle, but I still prefer the slightly fuller sound of an OM. It’s super comfortable to play though and I don’t think I’ve seen another 00-05.

@@fredflinstone3173 oh super interesting... Do you have any clips? So here's my thing. I love my OM05 but my P03 bass response is somewhat more resonant, if that makes sense (sustain is longer, has more sonic resonance). Definitely the bridge placement helps but I do wonder how much the shorter scale length also helps. So I always think about getting an OO05/03 with scale length either 24.75" or 25.5" standard (to be determined...) in order to get that amazing OM05 sound but mixed with the 12 fret resonance. Really interesting to hear you prefer the OM05. I really wish they did more OOs so I could try, or that there were more demoes online
