A new video from Gitarrenstudio Neustadt puts the Larson Bros Masterbuilt Grand OM in the spotlight, with Kevin Burg guiding viewers through its tone and feel. Built in Germany under master luthier Klaus, this OM is positioned as a modern Larson that stands apart from standard copies thanks to its own concept, voicing and character.
Burg describes the sound as intelligent and complex, with lines that bloom into rich overtones and a cooler timbre that never feels sterile. Fast passages reveal a multi-dimensional response, while both strumming and fingerstyle expose how evenly the guitar handles difficult intervals and higher-register single-note lines.
The featured instrument combines a Latemar spruce top (very likely torrefied) with Madagascar rosewood back and sides, paired with a mahogany neck for stability and warmth. Burg highlights Madagascar rosewood in particular as a wood that rewards long-term playing, offering huge potential and a distinctive, cool complexity as it opens up.
For players curious about the new generation of Larson Bros acoustics built in Europe, this demo functions as a focused listening session and an invitation to experience the guitar in person at Gitarrenstudio Neustadt. Anyone who appreciates carefully voiced OMs with a sophisticated overtone profile will find this Masterbuilt Grand OM an intriguing candidate to try.
