Today I played a 000-15SM.  I would probably have chosen it over my 000-17SM.  But this is Koa on the top, back and sides.  If you see one of these--buy it!!

Oskar has decided to retire.  It is such a privilege to have met Oskar and get to play some of his instruments.  All the best Oskar--wishing you a long, long retirement.  But--betcha he will make more  fine guitars.
