The Bourgeois D The One Twenty is an absolute masterpiece that sets a new standard for acoustic guitar craftsmanship. Combining the finest tonewoods, innovative construction techniques, and Bourgeois’ signature attention to detail, this instrument is nothing short of breathtaking, both sonically and visually.
The Aged Tone Adirondack Spruce top is at the heart of this guitar's magic. Adirondack is renowned for its unparalleled strength-to-weight ratio, which allows for a responsive top that can deliver stunning power and clarity. The Aged Tone treatment makes it even more special by giving the guitar the open, mature sound of a well-played vintage instrument right out of the box. The dynamic range is astonishing—you can coax soft, delicate tones with the lightest touch, or strum with full force and still get crystal-clear projection.
The Hybrid Brazilian Rosewood back and sides are a highlight of this model. Brazilian rosewood is legendary for its rich overtones, deep bass, and sparkling highs, and in this guitar, it adds an extraordinary level of complexity and warmth. Every note blooms with overtones, making the sound lush, rich, and endlessly captivating. The hybrid construction ensures durability while maintaining the rare wood’s incredible tonal properties, making this guitar as practical as it is luxurious.
The Brazilian rosewood fingerboard and cut-through bridge are not only visually stunning but contribute significantly to the instrument’s tonal clarity and articulation. The dense nature of Brazilian rosewood ensures that each note rings with precision and clarity, adding to the guitar’s overall responsiveness. The smooth, fast feel of the fingerboard makes playing an absolute joy, whether you’re flying up the neck or playing complex chord voicings.
The Aged Tone Adirondack Spruce braces are key to the guitar’s extraordinary resonance. Coupled with animal protein glue, the bracing system allows the top to vibrate more freely, resulting in a wide-open sound that projects effortlessly. The balance between structural integrity and tonal freedom is perfect, making the guitar responsive in any playing style, whether you’re a flatpicker or fingerstyle enthusiast. The Aged Tone finish not only adds a beautiful vintage patina but also allows the guitar to resonate more freely. This ultra-thin finish helps the guitar breathe, further enhancing its tonal depth and responsiveness while providing the protection needed for long-term durability. It’s the perfect complement to the high-quality materials and craftsmanship that define this instrument.
