Bourgeois Slope D

Slope-shoulder dreadnought acoustic guitar

United States

The Bourgeois Slope D is a slope-shouldered dreadnought defined by its short 25-inch scale length, with a 25.5-inch version also offered. Slightly curvier, wider, and deeper than the square-shouldered dreadnought, it has long been favored by country and American roots players and is widely regarded as an excellent choice for vocal accompaniment and as a fingerpicker's dreadnought. Bourgeois builds and hand-voices it in Lewiston, Maine.
