This JT-OM comes to us from the workshop of Finnish luthier Juuso Tornberg. 

Juuso’s JT-OM is a more modern approach to the OM model, with a deeper body adding more volume, and the combination of a sublime set of bocote for the back and sides paired with a master grade European spruce top provides a balanced tone with a big bass presence.

This particular model has 12 frets to the body and therefore has a more intimate feel and sweeter tone due to the ergonomics of the guitar putting the bridge further down on the lower bout.

The guitar was built in 2023 and includes a Hiscox hard shell case. It has been exhibited at a couple of guitar shows before arriving with us but is in as-new condition.

About the Luthier

Juuso Tornberg was mostly self taught before studying in his native Finland and completing an apprenticeship with luthier Ari-Jukka Luomaranta. Today, Juuso offers three models - his takes on SJ, OM and 00 shapes.

Juuso says, "I began my musical journey at the age of 7, and I’ve always had a passion for working with wood and hand tools. Guitar making allows me to combine both of these interests. My focus is on building steel-string acoustic guitars, and I am continually improving my skills to craft the best possible instrument for you."
