{"product_id":"the-standard-sd","title":"Bourgeois SD \"The Standard\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eEvery now and then, a guitar comes along that really blows us away. This Bourgeois Slope D? Good gracious, this is a serious instrument. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you first gaze upon it, the Black Top finish seems impossibly black. It's like a black mirror, and it draws you in like a black hole. Yet, the area underneath the Tiger Stripe pickguard is unfinished, so you can see the natural grain of the Aged Tone Adirondack Spruce through the lighter stripes of the pickguard. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom there, every detail is elegant, but understated. It has Madagascar Rosewood fingerboard with simple inlays that don't take away from the gorgeous Madagascar grain. The top, back, fingerboard, and pegehad are all bound with the same Ivoroid and black\/white purfling, which also matches the rosette. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs for tone, \"The Standard\" SD somehow sounds better than it looks. It has a rich, harmonic tone that is bold and powerful with strong bass definition and woody, mahogany overtone. Thanks to the Aged Tone Torrefied top, Aged Tone Torrefied bracing, and Animal Protein glue construction, this Slope D has the nuanced tone of a played-in vintage guitar, even though it's brand new. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: SD \"The Standard\" #9619\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuild Date: 6\/28\/2022\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop: Aged Tone Adirondack Spruce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale Length: 25\" Short Scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop Color: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack: Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosette: Single Ring Rosette Ivoroid on end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEndpiece Inlay: Body Wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Binding: Ivoroid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePurfling: Black\/ Ivoroid on end\/Black w\/b\u0026amp;s purfling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHead Shape: Contour Headstock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHead Veneer: Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHead Inlay: Mother of Pearl Bourgeois Logo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHead Binding: Matched with Fingerboard Binding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF.B.\/Bridge Wood Madagascar Rosewood Fretboard and Bridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFretboard Inlay: Tiny MOP Dots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFretboard Binding: Ivoroid with Black\/Cream Purflings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut\/Bridge Width: Nut- 1 23\/32 Bridge- 2.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeel Cap: Ivoroid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuners: Waverly Nickel\/Oval\/Ivoroid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: Rectangular Madagascar Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePins: Ivoroid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickguard: Celluloid Firestripe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabel: Dana Bourgeois Signature Label\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlue: Animal Protein\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Finish: Satin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadstock Finish: High Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Finish: Aged Tone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecial Options: Aged Tone Torrefied Bracing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/3M9zovyukQ8\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Reemes Music","offers":[{"title":"9619 - Black Top \/ Tiger Stripe \/ Madagascar FB","offer_id":53838805303615,"sku":"RMC-MUS-G70897780","price":4249.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7535\/9039\/files\/2022BourgeoisSlopeD_009619_-Detail05.jpg?v=1782094763","url":"https:\/\/www.reemesmusic.com\/products\/the-standard-sd","provider":"Reemes Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
