Here's the actual one. I like the darker fretboard.
Fingers crossed.

Still absolutely loving my OM 150. Has really robbed me from my electrics.
This will be a battle between the OM 120 and the OM 140 coming.
I just can't keep everything.
Absolutely nothing wrong with the OM 120 at all.
Super nice to play and set up really great. But I have been looking for a
non cutaway OM 140 even before the purchase of the OM 150.
We'll see :unsure::giggle:

So I've been playing the OM 120 and the OM 140 and they both have a really sweet sound.
I'm really leaning toward keeping the OM 140 over the OM 120 due to the beautiful grain and burst, especially in person.
The OM 150 is still my main guitar now but really like the sweetness of the mahogany for a different flavor.
May post the OM 120 for sale here as it is a great guitar and still has plastic on the guard and is in a Guild Hardshell case.
Here's the burst next to my OM 150.

Makes sense and you'd still have 2 fine guitars that make you happy.

It is quite amazing how the mahogany transfers the voice quite differently than the rosewood back and sides. Both really pleasing, just very different. The OM 120 is certainly closer to the tone of the OM140 than the OM150. They are all wonderful just have their own personalities.
