0 Classic. If you are looking for something to cheer you up, this might just be it. What a voice this little guitar has. 25" scale and 14 Frets to the body. Nice. Plenty of power and balance and complexity . When we first introduced it at a NAMM show, it got a big thumbs up from Bryan Sutton, Scott Fore and David Grissom. Not a bad beginning.
Since then, we have built this guitar in many different configurations: Adirondack top, Bearclaw Sitka, Mahogany, Indian Rosewood, Madagascar and a beautiful little Brazilian. We have made it with DB Signature specs and we have made it in a Sunburst. All great choices.
Here's an email from a customer who just picked up his Style 0 Custom with DB Sig specs (Madagascar Rosewood & European Spruce:
Hi Bonni,Bourgeois needs to come up with a new name for all of their guitars. It's not an OMC nor an 0. They should all be called "0"MGs. Oh my god!What amazing guitars. I can't imagine what these things will sound like in a few years. I'm hoping that many years after I'm dead, my kids will pick them up and be motivated to devote themselves to them, even if it's late in their lives.
That little 0 is a wonder. Who said you can't strum an 0? While it absolutely shines with fingerstyle (bare fingers), I can strum it as hard as my OMC and it doesn't break up. More headroom then this 61 year old will ever need. It's a marvel of physics. Not sure how ya'll do it. Maybe a magic wand.
Have a good weekend.
