In early June, Upper Nazareth-based C.F. Martin & Co. introduced a new Custom Artist Edition Guitar, the OM Jeff Daniels, which was designed in collaboration with the award-winning film and stage actor. Exciting? Absolutely! Last week, however, the "Dumb and Dumber" actor introduced the OM Jeff Daniels to all of America -- well, to those not glued to the Olympics -- during an appearance on Conan.

Upper Nazareth-based C. F. Martin & Co. recently introduced a Custom Artist Edition Guitar, the OM Jeff Daniels, which was designed in collaboration with the award-winning film and stage actor. In 2001 the "Dumb and Dumber" actor started playing a 1934 Martin C-2 archtop. The broken top had been replaced with a soundboard of Adirondack spruce, in effect converting it into an Orchestra Model (OM), according to a press release. That guitar became Daniels’ constant companion in the studio and on stage and it became the template for the Martin OM Jeff Daniels Custom Artist Edition. “My new OM looks great and it has terrific balance all the way up the fretboard,” Daniels said in the press release. “I’m noticing a solid low end that my original …
