Martin OMBIOSPHERE OM Biosphere Acoustic Guitar - Custom Ink
Store finder
Looking for a modern Martin with a little something extra? The OM Biosphere Acoustic Guitar may be just the thing! This one-off creation features 100% FSC-certified tonewoods and zero plastic. The OM Biosphere is only the second Martin guitar to boast such green credentials, an effort the company hopes can remind us all to preserve our planet’s beauty. The OM Biosphere commands attention in terms of looks and tone with a powerful spruce top featuring art from Robert Goetzl. Goetzl’s celebrated work spans illustrations of music icons, nature, and more, all artfully emblazoned on guitar tops, including several past Martin special editions. Art aside, the OM Biosphere plays beautifully with sapele back and sides shaping a rich, familiar tone similar to mahogany and a mahogany neck with a progressive carve that improves fretting accuracy and comfort at both ends of the neck. Simply put, it’s one of the best-playing green guitars we’ve ever seen. But don’t delay: the OM Biosphere.
Reminder to preserve our planet for future generations. To show our support for the preservation and replenishment of coral reefs, which are some of the most diverse and valuable ecosystems on earth, the top is adorned with stunning artwork by renowned artist Robert Goetzl depicting a colorful ocean scene. This model is FSC® certified and only the second plastic-free guitar in production today, preceded by our 00L Earth guitar. Even the gig bag is sustainable: made from hemp—a Martin first. So, share your support for our oceans by playing one of the most environmentally friendly guitars on earth.
OM body with a progressive neck
The OM Biosphere’s stunning top makes a unique visual statement, but structurally this guitar evokes a long lineage of Martin OM classics. The OM body style is balanced and versatile with a strong waist taper for focused projection and superior fretting comfort that’s especially present when played fingerstyle. A smooth ebony fingerboard and 14th-fret neck joint yield string action perfectly balanced between tension and flexibility, which makes strummed chords resonant and full while still having the supple action needed for fleet fingerstyle work. But the real star here is the Biosphere’s mahogany neck. This neck features Martin’s modified low oval high-performance taper — a mouthful to say, but a joy to play! This tapered take on the oval neck fuels enhanced accuracy and comfort at both ends of the neck, giving you the right grip for large frets down low and smaller frets up high. No matter your playing style, we think you’ll feel right at home with the Martin OM Biosphere.
Classic tone, zero guilt
The OM Biosphere’s spruce top and sapele back and sides deliver clear tone that harkens back to classic Martin recipes, but with a twist: they were responsibly sourced and have receipts to prove it. The OM Biosphere is 100% FSC-certified, which means it’s won the seal of approval from the Forest Stewardship Council, the world’s leading authority on all things sustainability when it comes to wood. This coveted FSC seal of approval tells you that this Martin adheres to strict independently-verified standards for good vibes all around. What’s more, the OM Biosphere contains zero plastic, a rarity in the guitar world that showcases a future that’s packed with clean oceans and beautiful instruments, not just one or the other! For example, the bridge is crafted with an FSC-certified ebony base and bone pins. On top of being green, these premium components let the true nature of tonewoods and strings shine by offering superior performance to plastic at every turn.
