⚌Reduced‼ Bourgeois Mahogany D Aged Tone Natural, 2013

On September 16, 2023 /

The Bourgeois Mahogany D is a master luthier’s take on the venerable D-18 pairing of Adirondack Spruce with Mahogany back, sides and neck, and the Aged Tone Spruce gives it an extra sparkle and depth. Adirondack Spruce has a slightly wider grain structure compared to Sitka, but is still extremely strong and is reputed to have somewhat more ‘headroom’ when played aggressively, as might sometimes occur in a Bluegrass or Country context.
