It pairs a bearclaw figured Sitka spruce top with light figured mahogany, and the bracing is Bourgeois's double scalloped Banjo Killer pattern. That bracing is what the name is about: it lets the top move freely for the volume, punch and quick response a flatpicker needs to stand up to a banjo in a bluegrass jam.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 25.5 inch long scale adds string tension and headroom when you dig in, and the nut is 1 23\/32 inches with 2.2 inch string spacing at the bridge. The fretboard and belly bridge are Madagascar rosewood, with tiny mother-of-pearl dots on the fretboard and ebony bridge pins with pearl dots. Waverly nickel tuners with ivoroid buttons sit on the Bourgeois snake headstock. The neck has a satin finish for a fast feel, and there is no pickup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIvoroid body binding with a Banjo Killer top border carried around the back and sides, a wood ring rosette, a DB backstrip with a black line and a body wood endpiece inlay give it a classic look. The headstock has a Madagascar rosewood veneer with a mother-of-pearl Bourgeois logo, and a celluloid tortoise pickguard sits under the natural high gloss top. The Dana Bourgeois signature label is inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSerial #11511 — this listing is for the exact instrument shown in the photos above.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhy Choose The Acoustic Shoppe?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen you choose to purchase from us, you're not just making a transaction; you're investing in an exceptional experience.
