Here is a beautiful 2010 Model 1887 built by Bernie Lehmann in Rochester, NY. This is an OM/000 body type with curves influenced by Bernie's expertise with classical guitars and man does it sound great! It is made out of the most perfectly quartered spruce I have ever seen carved super thin so this guitar is light, resonant, and LOUD. Bernie is a master of x-bracing and even the back is x-braced-- you can almost hear the box resonating even when not playing. The steamed Swiss pear back and sides are beautiful and give the tone a very bright and sweetly complex tone. A nicely executed slot head, abalone bar inlay position markers, and bone with abalone accessories complete the package to make this one a real looker!! It is in very good condition, just a few marks here and there, and shim under the fingerboard with some marks around the heel. The pickguard has been taken off, so there is a tan line, but that should resolve over time, or you can install your own or leave it au natural.
Here are some specs (please note my measurements are approximate and don't entirely match Bernie's default specs listed on the website):
