Title: Difference bewteen L-05 and OM-05
Post by: Blaster on August 07, 2006, 12:54:14 AM
Can anyone tell me the differences between these 2?  I know the body style is different, but what about the sound, playability, etc?

I find the L05 louder with a more pronouced bass whereas the OM has a more precise resonance... whatever that means. The OM responds to the fingerstyle touch better than the L05 but the L05 is more versatile in my opinion as it can handle both hard strumming and delicate fingerstyle.

Different tonal qualities of mahogany and rosewood, and different feel of playing instruments with different body shapes and depths.

I thought both L05 and OM-05 were mahogany? That's what the website says anyway.
