Post Beautiful Bourgeois--SOLD---

This remarkable redwood topped Custom Jumbo C is in excellent condition (9.9/10). This guitar has been lovingly cared for its whole life.(2012) Only slightly larger than the OM, it is a fingerstylist's dream. Very responsive with a lovely sustain. Unusual in that it has Gotoh tuners rather than Dana's normal Waverlys. Hardshell case is also in perfect condition. The Madagascar Rosewood is some of Dana's finest. Check out its Cocobolo cousin at Eddie's Guitars.

Price: $---SOLD---

A DREAM guitar for sure!!!

This DBJC and Dana's small jumbo are my two favorite body styles that he offers. Such great great sounding guitars...every bit as fine sounding as they are fine looking!!!

GLWS...

---Like your Blackwood custom, Dana finds and uses such fine materials and as always they are really impressive when up close.

What a remarkable guitar. I wish I was in a position to buy it.
