If we could play Kim Walker guitars all day, trust us, we would. Kim’s instruments are what we like to call Universal Favorites: there’s enough of a vintage air to appease the staunchest Martin-phile, more than enough clarity and control to make the fingerstylist drool, and a rich resonance and sonority for the guitarist who craves the modern flavor you find from the finest luthiers active today like Ervin Somogyi and Jeff Traugott. Case in point: our 2009 Walker OM in Mahogany and Adirondack Spruce.
Kim’s Mahogany guitars don’t sound like Mahogany guitars. Or rather, they do have the woody crunch and attack of a Mahogany instrument, but somehow Kim fuses that flavor with a bit of the Rosewood propensity for overtones and dark bass. The result is a voice simultaneously sonorous and punchy. Check out the demo for a hint of what we mean by that. The aesthetic is understated, so the natural beauty of Mahogany and Adirondack are on high display here. These unassuming appointments give this Walker OM the character of the quiet kid in the corner whose got the voice of an angel. All you have to do is put pick or fingertip to string, and this OM will sing the pants of a trouser salesman.
Walker has once again closed his waiting list (just too many on the books already!), so this is a rare opportunity for you to snag one of Kim’s maestro works without the ten year waiting list—if it ever opens up again! Lutherie beauty like this won't linger for long.
