Don't miss out!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --------------------------------\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Bourgeois Guitars -\u003cbr\u003e Bourgeois Guitars, created by guitar maker Dana Bourgeois, is a top American guitar brand, often mentioned alongside Collings and Santa Cruz.\u003cbr\u003e Crafted from carefully selected materials, expert technical skills, and designs born from Dana's extensive experience, these guitars combine \"high precision as musical instruments\" with \"a musically rich tone,\" earning high praise from numerous musicians.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Bushstone Series -\u003cbr\u003e The appeal of the Touchstone Series lies in Dana Bourgeois's hand-voicing system (also known as tap tuning, where the tone is checked by tapping the wood).\u003cbr\u003e Over the past 50 years, he has refined this time-honored technique and is now recognized worldwide as a leading expert in soundboard voicing. He reads the potential tonality hidden within the fibers of the world's finest tonewoods, and selects only the finest soundboards.\u003cbr\u003e To maximize the unique tone of each type of wood, each brace on the soundboard is meticulously carved, and the sound is checked through hand-voicing. Once the soundboards for the Touchstone series are complete and have undergone a final check by Dana, only those that have been vacuum-sealed are shipped to the Eastman workshop.\u003cbr\u003e There, Eastman's hand-picked luthiers, who have meticulously studied Beaujolais's philosophy and structural methodology, breathe life into each of their guitars.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - The Standard\/TS L-DBO -\u003cbr\u003e Based on classic Gibson styles like the J-45 and L-00, this series incorporates the essence of Dana Bourgeois and is named \"The Standard.\"\u003cbr\u003e The L-DBO features an L-style body with thinner top bracing and a slightly larger soundhole, allowing you to experience volume and dynamics as if you were playing a guitar with a larger body size.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This guitar features a torified (heat-treated) Sitka spruce top, Honduran mahogany sides and back, and an exotic ziricote fingerboard and bridge. Ivoroid binding is applied to the body, fingerboard, and headstock, and the headstock top has a gloss finish, resulting in a simple yet atmospheric look.\u003cbr\u003e The strong midrange clarity and crisp, mellow tone make for a truly enjoyable sound. It's perfect for flat-pick singing and blues strumming, but when played gently with fingerstyle, it produces an indescribably simple and warm tone.\u003cbr\u003e Combined with its comfortable body, this is a guitar you'll want to play forever.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e While this model is priced in the 500,000 yen range, making it very affordable within the Beaujolais range, it's far too good to simply be described as cost-effective. It's crafted with absolutely no compromises, resulting in an instrument that delivers an overwhelming sound quality.\u003cbr\u003e Please take this opportunity to experience it for yourself!!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBody Shape: L-DBO\u003cbr\u003e Top Wood: Aged Tone Torrefied Sitka Spruce\u003cbr\u003e Back Sides: Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e Bracing: Adirondack Spruce\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Neck: Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e Fretboard: Ziricote\u003cbr\u003e Bridge: Ziricote\u003cbr\u003e Head Plate: Ebony\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Scale Length: 25 inches (632 mm)\u003cbr\u003e Nut\/Bridge Width: Nut-1 23\/32(43.7mm) Bridge-2.2(55.8mm)\u003cbr\u003e Nut: Bone\u003cbr\u003e Saddle: Bone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Body Finish: High Gloss\u003cbr\u003e Neck Finish: Satin\u003cbr\u003e Head Plate Finish: Satin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Tuners: Schaller Nickel with Oval Ivoroid Buttons\u003cbr\u003e Pins: Ivoroid\u003cbr\u003e Spinguard: None\u003cbr\u003e Electronics: None\u003cbr\u003e Case: Hard Case","brand":"Bourgeois","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43734664478833,"sku":"863950","price":3498.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/863950_01.jpg?v=1785134629","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/fr\/products\/863950","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
