These dreadnought models were hand built by Dana Bourgeouis in USA in the mid 90's using only the finest tone woods . This model is the rarest of the Native American Series . Spruce top , birdseye maple back and sides . Fingerboard is said to be rosewood , but I think they are actually ebony .

This guitar with the birdseye maple sounds great from lows to highs . Very nice action and easy on the fingers . Although it is not a boomer , ( lows are quite soft ). I havent played it plugged in .

Overall Rating

10
I own many guitars .If this git were stolen I would definately try to replace it . It would be difficult due to rarety . I love the comfort of it , just feels good . And of course the tone . I would only put a sound hole pick up in it as not to change anything else .
