{"product_id":"l-dbo-13-custom-hearne-hardwoods-all-koa-10748","title":"Bourgeois L-DBO 13 Custom Hearne Hardwoods All-Koa","description":"\u003cp\u003eSince 1997, Hearne Hardwoods has been one of the premier suppliers of specialty and exotic lumber in the world. Known for sourcing the finest and most beautiful woods available, this small, family-owned company recently expanded its selection to include a variety of woods suitable for guitar building, and thus Hearne Tonewoods was born. To celebrate their push into guitar woods, Hearne collaborated with Dana Bourgeois to construct a limited run of six guitars out of fine Hawaiian Koa. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Bourgeois L-DBO 13 Custom features the exact specs as the all-koa Hearne Hardwoods guitar that was showcased at NAMM 2024. To be fair, this is an ambitious spec sheet, but Bourgeois absolutely knocked it out of the park and delivered a stunning instrument. You may be asking, \"what do you mean 'All-Koa' guitar?\" Well, Bourgeois used Koa for every wood part where it makes sense. The Top, the Back, the Sides, the Fingerboard, the Bridge, the Neck, the Peghead—all are stunning Figured Koa sourced through Hearne Tonewoods. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis guitar has a rare 13-fret neck joint, and the body is 4-3\/4\" deep, so it's 1\/2\" deeper than a standard L-DBO. Combined with Aged Tone Torrefied Bracing, the unique body design helps this Bourgeois overcome some of the perceived deficiencies of Koa. When you might expect a Koa guitar to be thin, bright, and brittle, this guitar is full bodied with plenty of depth, richness, and subtlety. There is mid-range warmth and woody character that make this guitar a joy to play. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith an intricate Heron inlay on the peghead, this all-Koa Bourgeois is an impressive presentation piece—a unique high-end guitar worthy of becoming a family heirloom.
