This Bourgeois slope-shouldered dreadnought was custom ordered through TME by its original owner; and it's just come back to us on trade. Both the vintage-style sunburst and "semi-gloss" finish were custom touches at the time ~ and age and playwear has only made them both look better. This is a loud, full-sounding dreadnought that has a little extra emphasis in the mids thanks to the round-shoulder design. It's got horsepower like a classic D-28 and a bit more punch on tap for an aggressive flatpicker interested in cutting through a mix.
