Default (SOLD) Bourgeois Custom African Blackwood/AT Adirondack LSH OM

For sale is my 2017 African Blackwood (pretty sure this is master grade ABW) and aged-tone Adirondack spruce large sound hole OM.
This guitar was custom built for me by Bourgeois last year and is in mint condition except for a mark on the corner of the headstock (see next to last photo) that
is (truly) barely noticeable...you really have to be looking for it. Other than that the guitar looks brand new. There are several upgrades (beyond the obvious tone woods)
from the standard large sound hole OM including the vintage style inlay, pyramid bridge, and bone pins and the inlay.
I am including the spec sheet but note that the headstock overlay is actually Madagascar Rosewood and not ziricote. This guitar sounds really incredible and is a joy to play.
Comes in the OHSC. Asking price is SOLD shipped! Will consider reasonable offers.

Details:
Bourgeois Large Soundhole OM
Top: Torrified Adirondack Spruce
Back/Sides: African Blackwood
Bracing: AT Adirondack
Binding: Ivorioid
Purfling: Herringbone
Tuners: Waverly Relic
Nut: 1 3/4"
Frets: 14 to body
Nut/Saddle/Pins: Bone
Pyramid Bridge

Note: The first few images are pro shots from Bourgeois as this guitar was featured on their website and Facebook page for a few days. The last few shots are a few that I took to show current condition.

That’s a spectacular looking Bourgeois! I especially like Dana’s OMs with pyramid bridges. But I can’t blame you for GASing for a BRW Goodall. I was just bitten by the same bug and it was hard to resist and I eventually succumbed. Good news is that once you’ve found it, you’ll be GAS free for a long while.

For those who don’t know the OP, Hunter is a straight shooter and a great guy to deal with. Buy with confidence!

Thanks for the kind words Rye! Can’t say I regret trading that BRGCC for the MdRCJ but l have been thinking about that guitar quite a bit lately.

Perhaps the nicest Bourgeois I've ever seen... Wow!

Beautiful tonewoods all around and just about the perfect specs.

Good luck with the sale.

Thanks for the kind words! It's definitely a killer Bourgeois.

Default ABW large soundhole OM

after playing this instrument i'd say it's one of the very best Bourgeois guitars Dana has made. Superb sound & very easy to play.
