This one was destined to find a home with me. Only 20 minutes down the road and a price tag less than I would have laid out for a new Epi Maserbillt. What was a poor boy to do.
The WM-00 was part of Bozeman's first attempt at a budget line. They brought out four models, three of which including mine, were offered only from 1998 to 2001. Mine was birthed that last year of production making it the only guitar I own which rolled out of a factory in the century I am living.
While the other models were based on guitars from past catalogs this one was a pure Bozeman concoction. It mates a 14 7/8" wide round lower bout with a J45 body depth. Fortunately, the stock gold Rotomatics (go figure) had already been swapped out for Kluson Keystones. But the Martin-style teardrop pickguard has got to go. As to sound, the guitar is mid-range rich with a heck of a snap to it.
