For Sale: SOLD - Bourgeois OMS Redwood / English Walnut (price drop)

[soups]

SOLD
For sale is a stunning 2018 Bourgeois OMS that I recently purchased here on the forum. While it's an outstanding instrument, it's basically competing for time with my Bourgeois OM and I find myself picking that one up more than this beauty. I'm also trying to fund a Santa Cruz custom build. I've decided to part with this beauty before I get too attached.





I'm merely hoping to recoup my investment. The guitar is as immaculate as when the original owner and fellow forum member Roberts sent it to me.

Agreed! Absolutely stunning!

Sometimes you track a guitar and watch it get sold only to see it reappear shortly after, and suspect, quite naturally, there must be something lacking in it. I did indeed sell this to Chris about a month ago and can attest that it is an immaculate looking, playing and sounding Bourgeois. I’ve spoken with Chris and understand his reasons for re-listing it, which have nothing to do with the Guitar’s quality. It’s the real deal- drop dead gorgeous, virtually unmarked, with a resonant, complex tone that blooms and sustains forever. If you’ve watched Bourgeois prices go through the roof you know this is very attractively priced. Go for it with confidence.

Just timing and a little overkill makes this one surplus. I'll happily keep it if it doesn't sell. It was a fun process getting it from roberts....

Would love to have someone take this guitar off my hands so it could be played!

[soups]

A lot of interest but alas, all involving trades.

[roberts]

Let me say again, as the original owner, this is a ridiculously great guitar!

[Rwpierce]

Gorgeous guitar, I’ve always wondered about that wood combination…

[Guitars44me]

my RT2c custom Has very similar woods. sinker Redwood over flamed claro walnut
These woods are somewhat unusual but it's not so unusual to see them paired together
They tend to make a wonderful combo. I'm sure this is a fine example of that paring

Cheers

Had some good conversations with a couple of folks about this one. Several trade offers, but I'm hoping for a sale. It's a shame for this to just be sitting around.
