The LDBO-14 50th Anniversary Soloist is a landmark instrument marking five decades of Dana Bourgeois's career as one of America's most respected luthiers. The bearclaw Italian spruce top is a statement in itself — the rare figuring adding visual drama alongside exceptional acoustic properties — while Macassar ebony back and sides deliver a bold, fast response with striking visual contrast. Every detail of this limited commemorative build reflects the pinnacle of Bourgeois craftsmanship: handbuilt in Lewiston, Maine, with an ebony fingerboard and Honduran mahogany neck, this is a guitar built to be both played and treasured.
