It’s in the name. It’s in your blood. Rooted in blues tradition, the Bourgeois Blues is built to accentuate your style. All Mahogany construction, combined with selected body styles and proper voicing, provides a punchy tone and warm, woody characteristics. This combination offers an ideal platform to drive your 12-bar to the next level. Ideal for players seeking a warm, clear, tone with strong fundamentals, long sustain, and headroom capability never before heard on a hardwood top guitar, the Bourgeois Blues has the key ingredients to take your playing above and beyond.

The L-DBO is larger than a 00, slightly smaller than the 000/OM, and designed with a 25” scale neck. Its relatively narrow upper bout imparts a distinctive wedge-shaped appearance, setting it apart from the 0/00/000 “gene pool”. As significantly, the L-DBO conceals two secret weapons: An unusually large soundhole for its size, and narrow, 1/4” top bracing which combine to produce unusual power and presence in such a small package.

“After a lifetime of playing Dreadnoughts, the L-DBO has become my go-to guitar”, says founder Dana Bourgeois. “Close your eyes and listen to Sierra Hull or Courtney Hartman work an L-DBO on a mic. You’re forgiven for thinking that’s a much larger guitar.”
