What We Think

The Bourgeois GACCB/DE-Koa-LE is a refined Grand Auditorium-style acoustic that delivers warmth, clarity, and impressive balance. Its Sitka spruce top provides a responsive, broken-in feel with strong articulation, while the figured koa body adds shimmer, depth, and a smooth midrange character. The hand-scalloped bracing helps it feel lively and open, responding well to both fingerstyle and strumming. A soft V mahogany neck and ziricote fingerboard offer a comfortable, natural playing experience. Smooth, dynamic, and highly expressive, this limited koa build offers a rich, polished voice with plenty of character.

Manufacturer's Description from Bourgeois

Balance, dialed in. Warmth and sparkle in equal measure.

Open, responsive, and easy to lean into, the Country Boy blends clarity with character in a way that feels instantly familiar. Light to the touch but ready when pushed, it moves effortlessly from subtle nuance to confident drive. Flexible, comfortable, and musically adaptable, this is a Grand Auditorium built for players who want range without losing personality.

About Manufacturer

Bourgeois Guitars are defining the future of vintage tone, combining old-world hand-voicing techniques with modern innovations in design and materials. 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.
