Bourgeois' Country Boy and Vintage D models are dreadnoughts built in the traditional pre-war idiom.
Watch
Why it matters
Bourgeois is a small American builder whose dreadnoughts follow the traditional pre-war pattern rather than the modern, heavily braced approach. The Country Boy starts at $4,399 in satin finish, with gloss and other options pushing the number higher. Production runs are small, so most examples are ordered rather than taken off a dealer's wall.
Note
The signature pre-war-inspired dreads.

Before you buy
- Most examples are ordered rather than bought from stock, so lead times apply
- Timber options and finish changes move the price substantially
- A dreadnought of this size rewards a proper setup for the string gauge being used
