What We Think

Condition: Used, Very Good (repaired side crack & relocated strap button, pictured)

A modern day holy grail!  This guitar proves the importance of that crucial combination of imagination and a fantastic ear--Dana Bourgeois has both, in addition to an absolute mastery of his craft and worldclass stock of tonewoods.  The large soundhole and Banjo Killer bracing alone put the guitar into a realm of articulate power that few instruments inhabit.  With the inclusion of torrefied Adirondack and a gorgeous set of Brazilian, well, now we're talking about a whole new world of acoustic perfection, population 1.  And while it's an absolute powerhouse capable of room-filling volumes, the D is in equal measure complex tonally...a musical voice as wise as it is strong.  Dana's trademark balance is here, too--you won't find prejudice for any one section of the dynamic spectrum here.  We wager you just won't flatpick a better guitar...after you get your hands on this one, you won't want to pick anything else, period!

Manufacturer's Description from Bourgeois

Our most popular model, the square shoulder pre-War style Dreadnought delivers ample power to cut through any performance situation. Featuring Dana's unique, single-scalloped X brace system, our Dreadnought has become a bluegrass classic, offering a blend of balance and clarity absolutely required for flatpicking, highly desirable for most other styles of playing, but rarely found in a contemporary dreadnought.

Built in a ca. 1850s mill in the industrial town of Lewiston Maine, master luthier Dana Bourgeois and his small team of highly skilled craftsman produce some of the finest steel-string instruments available today. 
 
Known for tonal excellence, meticulous craftsmanship and top-notch materials, they are played by six-string luminaries such as Bryan Sutton, Ricky Skaggs, Sean Watkins, Della Mae, the late Doc Watson and countless professional and nonprofessional enthusiasts. Bourgeois guitars have had a prominent role in the American steel-string guitar renaissance for more than two decades, helping shape acoustic music’s most recent rise in popularity.
