Description

This Bourgeois Guitars - 'The Champ' dread delivers a classic tonewood pairing with some of Bourgeois' advanced construction techniques. Featuring an upgraded Aged Tone Adirondack spruce top, Aged Tone Bracing and a Mahogany back and sides this dread has the sort of string response, focused low end and dynamic high end that we look for in a flatpicking guitar. Thanks to Bourgeois' asymmetrical bracing pattern, this build delivers a dry, even responsiveness across the instrument without becoming boomy in the bass.

This model has its origins at the Walnut Valley National Flat-Picking Championships, a place we know and love, and was dubbed 'The Champ' after being played by Luke Lovejoy to win first place at the 2018 competition. Includes a free setup from our team of luthiers and the hardshell case.

All our gear comes with a 7-day evaluation period. An extra 24 hours is added on for acoustic instruments during the winter season, to allow the contents to reach room temperature before you open the box. If you are not completely satisfied with the instrument, just return it via your preferred common carrier. Also, we do not send out instruments for evaluation without payment in full. *All B-Stock sale items are in working condition, and are sold as is. All B-Stock sales are final. To return an item please give us a call, or email to receive a return authorization. We ask that you very carefully pack the gear up in its original carton, with all the accessories and paper work included, and ship it back to us via a common carrier (not Uncle Al's Pony Express) to us. Please insure it for the full retail amount. If the item is damaged while in transit, we'll notify you and ask that you file a claim with your preferred shipper. Once the item arrives back to us and we unpack it, we will issue a full credit for the item, less the shipping charges.
