In the world of acoustic guitars, there is a confusing variety of models and sizes that can often be difficult to navigate. The designations 0, 00, 000, and OM frequently raise questions. Guitars of this type were originally developed by Martin Guitars and eventually became popular enough to be included in the catalogs of other manufacturers such as Taylor Guitars, Fender, and more.
The 0 guitar, also known as the Concert guitar, is distinguished by its compact body, making it an ideal choice for guitarists looking for a lightweight, easy-to-handle instrument. Its tone is intimate and focused, making it perfect for fingerstyle players who value clarity and articulation. Due to its smaller size, it is also an excellent choice for smaller players and travelers.
Slightly larger are the 00 guitars, sometimes referred to as Grand Concert. They offer a great balance between playing comfort and a wide tonal range, making them especially popular among singer-songwriters and fingerstyle players.
000 guitars are slightly larger and provide even richer tonal depth. They are also known as Auditorium guitars and are considered highly versatile. Their balanced sound makes them a popular choice across various musical styles, while their medium-sized shape appeals to guitarists looking for an ideal combination of tonal quality and playing comfort.
OM stands for Orchestra Model, a designation that indicates these guitars were originally designed for orchestral guitarists. They resemble 000 models but typically have a longer scale length, which produces a stronger tone for individual notes, making them a perfect choice for virtuosic solo playing.
