Default Bourgeois 00 Coupe Figured hog/baked bearclaw sunburst $5000

Bought this fairly recently here on AGF, and am liquidating a BUNCH of resources for various other financial responsibilities. Here's the info from the original owner:

"Bourgeois 00 'Coupe' Custom AT Acoustic Guitar, Figured Mahogany & Torrefied Bearclaw Sitka Spruce.Bought it new from North American Guitar then Covid came.

Never gigged, not a mark on it except maybe pick scratch on the pick guard.
I had an Anthem pickup pro installed. It’s been sitting in the case.

Made up out of stunning Figured Mahogany paired with a beautiful Torrefied Bearclaw Spruce top, this instrument is responsive and inspiring to play with present punchy mids, gorgeous note separation and a full, rounded low end.
The Mahogany neck is topped in classic fashion with an Ebony board and sports a mild V shape to the profile which remains comfortable and articulate from the first fret all the way through to the higher registers."

I have babied this since I bought it three months ago, and is in the same condition as when I purchased it. More pix on request. Price isxxxxx

I added a photo of the back. It looks a little more washed out in the bright light than it appears in person. I also added a YT vid from when the guitar was sold from The North American Guitar in Tennessee.

Don't worry thanks, I can do that if they are standard. Just sometimes I see the newbies getting roughed up a bit for incomplete details!!! Hahaha.

From the Bourgeois website:


Nut Width 1 3/4”
Scale Length 25”
Bridge Spacing 2 5/16
Upper Bout Width 10 7/8”
Waist 9"
Lower Bout Width 14 1/2”
Body Length 18 3/4”
Depth at Neck 3 1/4”
Depth at Tail-Black 4”
Total Length 38 5/8”

For what it is worth, the post clearly states "custom" which can mean a lot of things and I would never categorize a potential buyer's desire to have accurate specifications concerning such things as size and string spacings on a concert class instrument as "newbie" concerns.

For the most part, when a seller does not post them I'll move along unless the instrument is of particular interest to me - but I will linger on some that might not speak to me right off if I see my personal string spacing preferences.

No offense to matthewpatrick, when I decided to post this reply I took the time to look up those specs on the Bourgeois site (to save him the time) as a gesture of respect before hijacking his post.

Many thanks for these detailed specs. Note that I was being humorous; referring to the mauling that some newbies get for not posting specs and not the desire by potential buyers for info. Thought the poster would appreciate the levity and irony given his status on the site.
Back to Sgt Bilko reruns for me I guess.
