Default 1998 Bourgeios

Jeff and I have had a few transactions in the past. He’s a stand up guy. Great to deal with.

GLWS, Jeff. Probably won’t need it, looks like you’re getting lots of attention.

Will someone please buy this great guitar, at a great price from a great seller?

I am tempted, but need to sell a few first.

This model is so unique, it really sets itself apart from other guitars.

You cannot go wrong with this one.

Oh man, this guitar is back. I was considering it but decided to try a Lowden O-25 instead. It sounds great but I think the string spacing may not be ideal for my fingerpicking.

I probably should have jumped on the Bourgeois, someone needs to buy it so i can stop being tempted.

Thank you, sir! I had every intention of keeping this one, which is why I added the Baggs pick up since we last corresponded. Unfortunately I just got my 2022 taxes back and it is not looking good for me :-) time to liquidate some stuff.

Sunday bump! These guys were built to excel at alternate tuning’s. This one loves DADGAD!

Joel, could you describe the tone some more? Jeff mentioned it was more dry and woody, vs lush like a Goodall. Are there any comparisons you can draw between it and other common guitar models, or guitars you have played? Jeff sent me a video, but I'd be interested in hearing your description. I played a spruce/rosewood Bourgeois today that was outstanding, super loud and resonant.
