Bourgeois OMS Custom 12-Fret
The Bourgeois OMS employs an intriguing 12-fret Orchestra Model design with a long, 25.5" scale. This design pushes the bridge further towards the lower bout, which opens up bass frequencies and provides a looser, more open sound all around. Nevertheless, this guitar retains all the focus and clarity that make an Orchestra Model so desirable. This OMS Custom was built with a Bearclaw Italian Alpine Spruce and Indian Rosewood back and sides. This is a versatile OM that responds quickly and accurately, which gives it an expressive, touch-sensitive feel. Notes bloom as they should with a light, fingerstyle touch, but it cuts through and sings when you push it with a flat pick. The Rosewood back and sides provide plenty of sparkle and detail, and the 12-fret design balances out the trebles with impressive bass response. Like every Bourgeois guitar, the workmanship feels absolutely top notch with every detail executed on the highest level. A good instrument starts with the right materials,
