Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
A textbook, worship-worthy OM from Bourgeois. The model has always been a cornerstone and specialty of Dana's--this particular model is as good as that rare blend of old school and newschool gets with the additional tonal and cosmetic benefit of torrefied top, braces, and a particularly thin finish.

From Bourgeois Guitars
Harkening back to our roots in vintage-inspired design, our Vintage model has for decades been a cornerstone of the Bourgeois brand. With a few changes, we’ve made the all new Vintage Heirloom. Imagine the fullness of East Indian Rosewood, paired with a premium Adirondack Spruce soundboard. Now add authentic prewar appointments and Animal Protein glue. The result will bring you back to the days before the term “vintage” applied to guitars.
