Straight from four time Grammy Award winner David Holt’s hands to yours! This gorgeous Bourgeois Aged Tone OM was David’s for several years, and now we’re proud to offer it up to you.
Great articulation, great balance, dynamic tone–these are the qualities you look for in a quality instrument. Bourgeois Guitars has taken that to heart, building powerful steel strings with traditional appointments, like this Bourgeois 2013 OM. Mahogany back and sides, when combined with the Adirondack Spruce top, gives the guitar a rich, complex tone and a pianistic separation of notes. The middle registers have that perfect level of overtones, and the low-end is comparable to a Dreadnought, but Bourgeois’s OM shape insures that the instrument’s voice is very balanced. This guitar opens up magnificently with an aggressive attack and takes on an explosive projection when played in Drop D (making it a great candidate for Irish accompaniment). Tight control and a quick response: this is one strong player.
Bold yet articulate, the latest Bougeois addition to our shop fits right in with many of our Circas, Collings, and Martins. This is some of the finest-sounding Mahogany I've heard in some time, and the fact that the tonewoods have been aged, or thermo-cured, gives it a more mature sound without being built several decades ago. I'd recommend giving this one a strum to see what I mean. Click here to read about Dana's aging process. http://bourgeoisguitars.net/aged-tone-guitar-series/ 
Just a perfectly crafted instrument that is reminiscent of many pre-war Martins in both it's looks and sound. I really enjoyed playing this one. | Scale Length | 25.5 in |
