Default More pictures!

Here are some more pictures!

The only imperfection I can find, and it’s difficult to capture in picture due to only being able to see it in certain light is slight mark near dot markers 7, 8, and 12 when the frets were dressed and cleaned by a luthier. Otherwise I can’t find any blemish, scratches, or dents anywhere.

I’m also happy to text or email any pictures. Just send me a PM!

Thank you!

Drop dead gorgeous Bourgeois, understated beauty to the max and I am sure it sounds amazing. Where are you located? I am so hesitant to buy any fine guitar with very thin finish (as with all Dana's instruments, which of course is a big contributing factor in what they sound so good ) due to cracking possibilities during shipment at this time of year - 8 degrees here on Cape Cod this morning with relative humidity of 24 - and if you are not too far away I would consider a road trip. thanks!

Gene

Hi Gene - thanks for the post! I believe you raise very good concerns.

Unfortunately I am not close to Cape Cod as I live in Kansas. I'd love to meet up but that may be quite the road trip!

I absolutely sympathize with the concerns regarding both temperature and humidity. At home I keep my guitars (3 of them) in a humidified cabinet at 50% RH and temp between 68-72 degrees all year.

With shipping a guitar, I take that part of the process VERY seriously and would pack the box in the following ways:

1) I include D'Addario Humidipak system in the guitar and case during shipping to help regulate humidity while shipping

2) I include a piece of thin cardboard or heavy paper between the strings and fingerboard

3) I would put peanuts, paper, and/or wrapping foam inside to such a degree there is not movement of guitar in the box but also to help insulate and protect from temperature as much as possible.

4) I put packing material under the headstock to ensure it is supported all the way

I also am more than happy to work with anyone on any special shipping requests (ground vs 2-day, UPS vs FedEx, etc.)

Again, I absolutely hear the concern as I too would have the same and am happy to help any way I can!

Hi MHC - unfortunately I’m not looking to trade. I’m using the funds for a special order Taylor guitar. Thank you for asking!

Beautiful! GLWS! I can't think of any 3 Taylors worth selling this for, but I guess, that's just me .....

I bought my mint Adi/Madrose version for $3600.00 year before last. I'm glad to see the value has increased! GLWS!
