About a week ago a brand new OM-42 I ordered a year ago arrived! It's been so nice to play. It feels different than any other OM I've tried. It sings. It resonants differently. Thank you for your insights and comments on the instrument. I want to know it well. I look forward to it getting better. --Hopefully the Grover tuners are going to be solid.
Between om42 standard vs om18 authentic which do you prefer ? I have the om18 authentic which i love every bit of it has been thinking of getting om42.
Hey mate, tough question. Both exceptional guitars, OM-42 is the best sounding OM Martin off the shelf, OM2H is Collings' take on the original OM design. The OM-42 we had in recently was outstanding compared to other OM-42s I have played (new lutz spruce top). Comparing it to a older OM2H I found the Collings to have a boomy low-end but was certainly a great guitar, it did not have an ideal setup though. I would have to get two new models side by side to compare accurately. I'd go with the Martin currently.

That is a tough question! I would have to say the OM-18 Authentic in that comparison, but having both would be ideal!
Hey mate, how would you compare a Martin OM-42 vs a Collings OM2H?
