2001 Bourgeois Limited Edition D – £2749

NEW ARRIVAL  This guitar, in a limited run of 50, is Dana Bourgeous’ modern re-creation of the pre-1944 Herringbone Martin D28. It features the classic combination of Adirondack Spruce top with Rosewood back and sides, and scalloped bracing, together with his sympathetic tap tuning. The sheer power and dynamic range of this guitar can cut through just about any mix. It has incredible presence and deep bass response, yet the balance from a rich midrange to strong powerful trebles is very impressive. It’s very responsive for fingerstyle playing and handles flat picking supremely – this is a seriously impressive dreadnought. The guitar’s in very good condition, with the usual signs of light playwear, and a repaired top crack. The label has been signed by Dana Bourgeois himself. The guitar has an LR Baggs Anthem pickup fitted, and comes in a non original hard case.
