Earlier in 2017 Bourgeois introduced “The Standard” Series, inspired by stylings from the prewar era. Dana then began to wonder what their Advanced Slope D, a fancier, rosewood, long scale version of the Slope D, might look like with Standard Series appointments. After realizing that none of their existing inlays quite worked, a new inlay pattern became the design element around which a re-imagined model emerged.

“Rosewood jumbos had a punchier, more focused response than their short-scale, mahogany counterparts.” Dana remarked. “They might not have received as much attention, but they were well-suited for certain styles of high octane hillbilly music. You’ll sometimes see them in pictures of early bluegrass and country bands.”

Unfortunately this guitar was accidentally knocked over by a customer and has 2 small nicks on the top and a ghost line from buffing them, so we are discounting it by $600.00.
