Bourgeois OMS Country Boy Black Top - Sinker Sitka Spruce & Sinker Mahogany #10899

Description The Bourgeois OMS Country Boy Black Top – Sinker Sitka Spruce & Sinker Mahogany is a study in refinement and resonance, the work of a master builder who understands how tradition and innovation can breathe as one. Handcrafted under the watchful eye of Dana Bourgeois, this guitar bears the unmistakable mark of a luthier devoted to the soul of the acoustic instrument. Every detail, from the selection of tonewoods to the final polish of its black-lacquered top, speaks of intention and artistry. At its heart lies a Sinker Sitka Spruce top, aged beneath the waters for decades before being reclaimed and shaped into a voice that feels both ancient and alive. Paired with Sinker Mahogany back and sides, it delivers a sound that is rich and immediate, blooming with warmth yet clear as a bell. The Aged Tone torrefied Adirondack spruce braces lend a vintage responsiveness, awakening each note with a dynamic, open character. This combination of woods, coaxed together by Bourgeois’ expert hands and joined with animal protein glue, gives rise to a tone that feels aged in spirit, balanced between power and poise. Visually, the instrument is breathtaking. The high gloss black top contrasts beautifully with the deep, reddish hues of the mahogany body, traced in Brazilian rosewood binding and 1930s-style purfling that harken to the golden age of American guitar making. The 1930s-style rosette and black line backstrip continue that thread of vintage grace, while the Sinker Mahogany endpiece inlay and pyramid bridge in ebony ground the look in classic refinement. The square headstock with a diamond head shape wears a Madagascar rosewood veneer, its mother of pearl Bourgeois logo gleaming softly beneath a satin finish. The nickel Waverly tuners and ebony pins complete the aesthetic with quiet dignity. Every choice reflects Bourgeois’ philosophy of balance—each ornament understated, each flourish serving the music first. Playability is exquisite. The long 25.5-inch scale, 1 3/4-inch nut width, and 2 5/16-inch bridge spacing create an effortless feel for fingerstyle and flatpicking alike. The satin-finished neck glides smoothly in the hand, encouraging expression without fatigue, while the guitar’s light 4 lbs 4 oz weight enhances its lively response. This OMS Country Boy Black Top is more than an instrument—it is a voice of rare character, alive with the spirit of its maker and the centuries-old woods that compose it. Under Dana Bourgeois’ guidance, it sings with elegance and honesty, blending vintage soul with modern precision. In both sound and presence, it stands as a quiet masterpiece, the kind of guitar that invites not just playing, but devotion.
