Alejandro Aranda is a genre-bending artist celebrated for his distinct acoustic style, blending intricate fingerpicking with breathtaking melodies. So, for his Artist Series model, we put a fresh spin on his trusted muse: the dreadnought.
Starting with a classic acoustic design and adding a rebellious-yet-timeless take, the Pomona is built for a powerhouse.

We teamed up with LR Baggs to customize an Element Bronze pickup, engineered to enhance the warmth and articulation of Pomona. This system includes a lightweight undersaddle piezo with volume control.
Tune Easy
Grover open-gear tuners make sure you stay in tune, always. The vintage aesthetic just adds to the charm.

Big Sound, Bold Style
Alejandro made the guitar his own with a custom oversized pickguard, block inlays, and hand-drawn initials on the back of the headstock. The glossy sunburst finish adds flash.
This guitar sounds better than my $1500 Taylor and I am so glad I bought this before my Martin. You won't be disappointed, I promise!

Pomona Live V VS L Alejandro Aranda Model
The Alejandro Aranda Model is more than I could possibly ask for. The V VS L has the finest features. From the Glossy finish, to the open gear tuning machines, the Sunburst color, to the setup and intonation that are perfect. Overall the S VS L is the Perfect Dreadnaught.

I love everything about this guitar. The setup was top notch with great playability and the sound opens up the more you dig into the instrument. I’ll be getting more Orangewood guitars in the future.

Orangewood Pamona Live
I absolutely love this guitar. Action is perfect. Used it for the first time in worship plugged directly into the house and it sounded fantastic. Beautiful sustain and rich tone. I can say it's the best $475 I've spent on an acoustic guitar. Plays and sounds way above what I paid for it.
