2019 Bourgeois JOMT-Vintage Acoustic Guitar - $4,750 (Vestavia)
QR Code Link to This Post
Selling my 2019 Bourgeois JOMT-Vintage acoustic. With the progression of my Parkinson's, I simply do not have the chops to continue playing much fingerstyle music, which is predominantly what this is designed to accomplish, although it is also quite adept for light to moderate flat picking. JOMT stands for "Jumbo OM Thin Body". I have owned some incredible OM guitars over the last 40 years, but this one is, without a doubt, "king of the hill". The craftsmanship on this is second to none. Dana Bourgeois has long been known for his industry-leading bench standards among the boutique builders around the world.
The instrument is near mint condition (I say "near mint" because even though I can't find a mark on it, it is 6 years old, but played very sparingly and always in a climate controlled environment). It comes with original build sheet, original TKL Deluxe hardshell case, and professionally installed Trance Audio Amulet VT pickup ($275), which is as natural a sounding acoustic pickup as I have ever had in all my years of playing, recording and performing.
