Bourgeois OM Italian Spruce Figured Mahogany Adi Braces Hide
SOLD
OBO Shipped CONUS - No Trades Payment via Paypal or Wire Transfer I purchased this a few months ago from the individual who bought it from Diamondave in the winter of 2015/2016 in this thread: https://www.acousticguitarforum.com/...d.php?t=405474 That makes me the 3rd owner and Dave's comments in the original listing are spot on... definitely go read them! The only things I would add to his description are that this guitar has the most musical B string I've ever played... not thin, not metallic... a solid bold and beautiful B string that blends right in. I also personally feel Bourgeouis necks are the best in the business... easiest fretting, lower profile... just perfect. I'm selling to payoff a Bresnan I picked up here on AGF... the Bresnan fits a bit better tonally for what I was adding to the collection, but this Bourgeouis is easier to play... amazing versatility. Specs: 2012 Custom Ordered 25.4" Scale 1-3/4" Nut 2-5/16" Saddle string spacing Italian Spruce Figured Mahogany Adirondack Braces Hot Hide Glue construction Cocobolo rosette, heel cap, binding Waverly Nickel Snakewood tuning machines (new) No electronics Hard case Condition, a few items of note all related to the 2nd owner: 1. On the high e side of the neck, there is a dent that is visible in my pics. You can feel it when you run your fingers across it, but you will not feel it while playing as your hand/palm/fingers do not come in contact with that side of the neck (at least mine do not) pic1 pic2 2. The 2nd owner had installed a Baggs Anthem Tru-mic + UST which were removed before he posted it for sell. When removed that left the endpin jack hole (which I filled with a new endpin jack, no electronics, just the jack), left some residue and sticky pad reminants within the guitar (figure it could be removed but I didn't attempt to), and the original bone saddle was shimmed with ebony (so I installed a new bone saddle) 3. One of the original gold waverly tuning machines was binding badly, so I replaced with a new set of nickel (I prefer nickel over gold from an aesthetic preference) Recordings with Zoom H2n (no filters/eq/processing): Clip 1 (chords slow) Clip 2 (basic fingerstyle) Clip 3 (strumming) Picture Galleries: The strings in my pics may look old, but they're new... Earnie Ball Aluminum Bronze wound strings look dull, never shiny. Kojohns pics Diamondave pics

I recall a really bad sting when I sold this one, it was a favorite of mine.... tempting to revisit her, but I'm on selling mode... GLWS

Knowing what I do about Bourgeois - this is exactly what I'd order if I were to do so!
Stunning Mahogany. Wish things were different right now. Business had been shut down for 2 months already and now shut down completely due to flood damage. Too much uncertainty to be buying any instruments right now!

Love the woods and specs. If it was a 12 fret cut I would be in serious trouble... Best on this!!! Stay vigilant, stay well, have fun! Paul
