2025 - Bourgeois 00-12c Coupe Black Top - Italian Spruce & Sinker Mahogany

The Bourgeois 00-12c Coupe is a testament to refined craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail, capturing the hearts of players who seek both playability and an unparalleled tonal experience. This particular model boasts a top crafted from premium Italian spruce, whose tonal richness pairs beautifully with the sinker mahogany back and sides. The Italian spruce top imparts a smooth, articulate clarity that allows for a delicate touch, while the aged tone torrefied Adirondack spruce braces ensure a seasoned warmth and responsiveness, adding depth to every note. This combination is perfectly suited to fingerstyle players but also opens up well with a light pick, making it versatile across styles. Visually, the instrument is simply stunning. Ziricote appointments, including the binding, bridge, fingerboard, backstrip, and segmented rosette, lend an exotic yet understated elegance, contrasting beautifully with the sleek black top. The high gloss finish on the body and headstock elevates its classic, sophisticated look, while the satin finish on the neck ensures smooth, comfortable playability without any unwanted gloss-induced drag. Every detail is considered and executed with precision, from the 25" scale length that offers comfortable tension for intricate play to the gentle bluesy attitude that permeates its voice, particularly resonant in blues, folk, and roots genres. Tonally, this 00-12c Coupe produces warm, sweet tones that envelop the player, with a lively resonance that brings out an incredible richness in open chords and intricate fingerpicking passages. It offers a touch of mellow sweetness balanced by a bluesy, vocal-like midrange that adds soul to every note. Bourgeois has clearly imbued this guitar with both heritage and innovation, delivering a responsive, resonant instrument that exudes understated elegance and class.
