  The Bourgeois Celtic Style JOM is designed and voiced for full, ring-y, woody-toned tambres, lingering overtones and a snappy attack. We think this is the ideal tonal signature for a variety of Celtic guitar styles, including fingerstyle in DADGAD and other open tunings as well as "bouzouki-style" rhythm. The CS-JOM's Gaelic temperament results from the unique combination of a Western Red Cedar top and flamed Black Walnut back and sides on a medium-sized body, and bracing modifications developed specially for this model. This distinctive guitar is further enhanced by a new Celtic Knot fretboard inlay designed by Dana, inspired by border designs from the "Book of Kells" and executed in certified Mammoth Ivory. Additional appointments include abalone rosette, curly maple body, fretboard and headstock binding, Bourgeois backstrip, and Gold/Ebony Waverly tuners. Guaranteed to make you want green beer all year long.  For more information on this one call Gayl at Betterbilt Fretted Products  in California.
