Bourgeois Banjo Killer LSBK-SD Bearclaw Figured Sitka/Beeswing Mahogany Slope Shoulder Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar #0891

If you're looking for a slope-shoulder dreadnought that holds nothing back—volume, clarity, tone—the Bourgeois Banjo Killer delivers in every category. This one features a beautifully bearclawed Sitka spruce top paired with stunning beeswing mahogany back and sides. The result is a guitar that’s not just loud—it’s articulate, with a quick, clean response and a dry midrange punch that slices right through a jam or ensemble setting. The craftsmanship is what you expect from Dana Bourgeois: tight joinery, top-tier wood selection, and a tasteful aesthetic that never gets too flashy. The Banjo Killer purfling, ivoroid binding, and wood rosette all add just the right amount of visual interest, while the ziricote fingerboard and bridge add warmth both tonally and visually. With a 1 23/32" nut and 2.2" spacing at the bridge, it feels balanced under the fingers—roomy without being oversized. This guitar was built to hold its own against banjos, fiddles, and anything else you throw at it, but it’ll shine just as well solo on a mic. It’s a powerhouse in every sense.
