An amazing fingerstyle guitar, this 1997 Dana Bourgeois OMSC Custom OM 12 Fret features Brazilian Rosewood back. The European Spruce top completes this unique package and makes for a guitar with sweet, singing trebles and great, tight mids. It’s played in enough to really be open, so you get the best of this classic wood combination right now. The bound Mahogany neck is incredibly comfortable and the action couldn’t be smoother. Truly a remarkable instrument in every way; this Bourgeois is sure to please. It’s little wonder Dana’s guitars are played by such notables as Ricky Skaggs, Bryan Sutton and Martin Simpson.

This slightly older and beautifully open Bourgeois OMSC Custom OM 12 Fretter is a great example of the tone you can get from Brazilian and Spruce once it's matured. In my opinion, played-in guitars like this should sell for a lot more. If you've always wanted a prewar guitar but have a modern budget, this is guitar to take a serious look at. Bravo Dana for building and voicing another gem!
This is one of the best fingerstyle guitars I've ever played and the traditional styling really appeals to an Old Martin fan like myself. The tone is rich and round and it sounds good strummed too. A real winner.
