Default Bourgeois D Country Boy AT (D18)



Bunch of detail pics here at this Google Drive folder:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...hW?usp=sharing

I am the original owner - it is a 2016, and it has been my #1 the whole time. I recently got an Iris DF, which is fitting the bill and my tastes a little better, and find ourselves with a tax bill to settle, so need to move something.

TRADE: I would be interested in an Atkin 43 in trade, or a Gibson CS '57 Les Paul Special.

If you search for the album 'When You Move On' by 10 Cent Stranger on whatever your favorite streaming service is, the entire album is this guitar.

Here are a couple songs that have this guitar:

Live (some of this signal is direct via ToneDexter):

Some details:
'Aged Tone' Sitka spruce top (so it's torrefied). Silked like nobody's business. Gorgeous.
Mahogany back/sides/neck.
Unreal quality here - condition is 9/10 - the only issues are cosmetic with one mild dent on the top that does not pierce the finish (pictured), some stuff on one edge of the lower bout on the back that I couldn't even really get to show up in the picture - think mild worming, maybe 3/4" in one spot - and a little bit of wear in a couple spots on the back of the headstock where I stored my capo. Minimal fret wear (pictured).

It is warm, even, woody... good projection with a pick, sweet sounding finger picked.

OHSC in good condition - just a little bit of marking, one small pictured tolex tear that I could find. These cases are absolute tanks.

K&K Pure Mini installed.

Specs from when I purchased:
Aged Tone Sitka Spruce top
Mahogany back and sides
Ebony fretboard and bridge
Mahogany satin finish neck with volute
Tortoise body binding
Ziricote overlay and heelcap
Mahogany wedge
Multi-ring rosette
Pearl vintage dots fretboard inlay and logo
Maple/ Black top purfling
Nickel Waverly tuners
Bone nut and saddle
Tortoise pickguard
Ebony pins
1 23/32″ nut width
2.2″ saddle spacing
25.5″ saddle spacing
Deluxe hardshell case

Asking $3750 obo

Added specs from Bourgeois since I had several questions about this. I have the original pro sale pics in the folder as well - my phone pics make the top seem less amber than it is in person.

Such understated elegance. Family budget says no, but GLWTS. Drool.

Any idea what the neck depth is at the first fret? Beautiful sounding guitar and great playing in the demos!
