What We Think

The quintessential Bluegrass dread! This is end of the line, top of the hill, one hoss to rule them all territory, folks. Bryan Sutton played a model like this for years and for good reason--it's hard to think of an instrument that can better capture that approach of bringing traditional flatpicking forward without straying from its roots. We opted for Madagascar back and sides on this instrument to bring it that much closer to earth without sacrificing its lofty tonal position.

About Manufacturer

Bourgeois Guitars are defining the future of vintage tone, combining old-world hand-voicing techniques with modern innovations in design and materials. Built in a ca. 1850s mill in the industrial town of Lewiston Maine, master luthier Dana Bourgeois and his small team of highly skilled craftsman produce some of the finest steel-string instruments available today. 
 
Known for tonal excellence, meticulous craftsmanship and top-notch materials, they are played by six-string luminaries such as Bryan Sutton, Ricky Skaggs, Sean Watkins, Della Mae, the late Doc Watson and countless professional and nonprofessional enthusiasts. Bourgeois guitars have had a prominent role in the American steel-string guitar renaissance for more than two decades, helping shape acoustic music’s most recent rise in popularity.
