We Recreated a Legendary Guitar from 1929! Martin & Alamo's Authentic 1929 OM-28

[@ericoswood1856]

Probably the best sounding and best balanced guitar I’ve ever heard. Great video!

[@Christer1963]

As a Martin fan, have played most models, this is a fantastic sounding guitar.

[@Joe-zx7mg]

Cooper playing the great guitars. What a nice package!!

[@colinclement2752]

Beautiful guitar. I'm afraid to even ask the price.

[@lotus-e-clan]

Keep it up ! I only come here for the expensive exotica. Martin sound is my thing. I've worked and saved to get my two.

[@texhaines9957]

1930 OM-45 Deluxe was Roy Roger's guitar where the "modern Deluxe" neck profile comes from. This is very close to that

[@MervGinsberg-sc8kp]

Cooper and Chris! Confirm or deny: The creation of Alamo Music was a major contributing factor to the stock market crash of 1929. 😅

[@AlamoMusic]

LOL! Actually the stock market crash was a contributing factory to the creation of Alamo Music. A major retailer closed creating the need to piano repossession and lead to an awareness by our founder of the importance of music in people's lives that resulted in him carrying the note on these outstanding pianos and starting to sell them, some from a porch, others in a bus and caboose that would travel the city and Texas Hill Country. - Chris

@@AlamoMusic that’s cool. You never know when an opportunity is going to jump up and smack you in the face!

[@slpc30]

[@finchwilliams9859]

Very nice for sure.

Lovely wish I lived in Texas LOL

[@mariodriessen9740]

Cool! 🥶😎💙

What's next? A Staufer Marktneukirchen model with a violin style headstock? ✍️🎸👍

Who could afford a guitar at this level during the depression?

[@texhaines9957]

@jmw510 price was different, and so were production numbers. The OM was the largest guitar at that time with a 14-fret neck. Things were still going well in early 1929.

[@margiesplace259]

my understanding was that the number was the price OM 18= 18$ Om 28=28 dollars...hope this helps you.🎶

[@margiesplace259]

great idea for a custom guitar from Martin, one gripe Because all my other boxes that were checked off by you is, I really don't like the ivory. Reude wished he would have used wood binding with the hide protein glue. great playing as always!

[@allensaunders449]

There were very wealthy people immune to the depression

[@vonwelch7847]

There goes the first place on Cooper's top 5 of 2024. No more speculation. I see an OM28 on facebook marketplace for $2600 I wonder....

[@Stringsonabudget]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@rodolfolarrea8493]

I promise not to buy more guitars … you guys are giving me a hard time to fulfill this goal

[@Joe-m6p6b]

Every new guitar is a pre war model.

[@artrogers3985]

If they don’t sell who takes them home? 😊🎸

[@colinclement2752]

Me

[@rogershinton7483]

Ridiculous price! Nobody can convince me any guitar is worth that kind of money!

[@Mick_7878]

I get it, but the thing is - these guitars will go up in value over time. So not only are they amazing guitars, but perhaps an even better investment!

[@nixonswidow]

Can you make some affordable models? Seriously

[@justinstew]

If you’re watching a video on a custom guitar, it’s just not gonna be affordable

[@masterofce]

You mean you guys couldn't find anything more expensive.? It is absolutely ridiculous to even watch your videos anymore,,,,,you guys are so out of touch with the regular customers. I used to love your videos but you & Alamo are way Out of Touch.!!
