2004 Bourgeois Vintage D - Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar
Here's a like-new Vintage D from Dana and company. The Adirondack top on this guitar is simply amazing, very wide grain which is highly desirable on a Dread. The rosewood here is very dark and well quartered. The tone is very strong with great bell like chime on the top. The top part of an open G chord rings like a choir.

Player Reviews:
"Playing this guitar is like picking on a pre-war D-28. It's a fantastic reproduction of the classic Martin that everyone is looking for. One welcome difference is the bolt-on neck which means no expensive neck resets down the road." - Al Petteway
