Showcased at Fretboard Summit 2026, the Bourgeois Style 42 Piccolo Parlor is a small guitar of extraordinary beauty, rarity, and musical presence. Its intimate proportions are paired with an exceptional combination of Alpine spruce and quilted The Tree mahogany, creating an instrument that feels deeply responsive in the hands while producing a voice far larger and more dimensional than its size might suggest. Elegant, intricate, and unmistakably special, this is a parlor guitar elevated to the level of functional art.
The Alpine spruce top gives the Piccolo Parlor a clear, supple, and wonderfully expressive foundation. Alpine spruce is prized for combining the quick response and harmonic richness associated with European spruce with enough strength to retain clarity beneath a more assertive attack. It responds immediately to a light touch, making subtle fingerstyle passages feel effortless, yet it has the elasticity and headroom to grow as more energy is placed into the strings. Aged Tone torrefied Adirondack spruce bracing adds structure, definition, and a seasoned sense of openness, helping the guitar speak with remarkable freedom from its very first notes.
The back and sides are crafted from quilted The Tree mahogany, one of the most legendary and visually arresting tonewoods ever used in acoustic guitar making. Its dramatic figure moves across the body in deep, three dimensional waves, shifting between shadow and light as the guitar is turned. Beyond its breathtaking appearance, The Tree is celebrated for expanding upon the traditional virtues of mahogany. There is still the immediacy, clarity, and woody fundamental players expect, but also a greater sense of depth, sustain, and harmonic color. Paired with Alpine spruce, it gives this Piccolo Parlor a voice that is warm and intimate, yet unusually spacious and complete.
The compact body focuses each note with beautiful precision, while the 25 inch scale preserves a familiar feel and gives the instrument more authority than one might expect from a guitar of this size. Individual notes emerge with a rounded attack and linger with a soft halo of overtones. Chords remain balanced and articulate, with a clear midrange, sweet trebles, and a surprisingly grounded low end. It is an ideal companion for delicate fingerstyle playing, quiet vocal accompaniment, alternate tunings, and any player who values nuance over sheer volume.
Its Style 42 presentation is both opulent and remarkably tasteful. Brazilian rosewood binding traces the body, ebony fingerboard, and small slotted headstock, providing a dark, elegant frame for the pale Alpine spruce and richly figured mahogany. Koa top purfling surrounds the soundboard with warm flashes of amber, while an extra vintage koa ring rosette brings a beautifully restrained focal point to the top. The DB Signature backstrip adds another refined detail, and a floating box endpiece fashioned from The Tree mahogany allows the extraordinary figure to continue through every part of the body.
The Ghost Flower inlay theme gives the guitar its most distinctive visual identity. Sand shaded English holly, koa, and abalone form the intricate fingerboard design, combining organic shapes with extraordinary depth and color. The motif continues across the Brazilian rosewood headstock veneer, where another Ghost Flower blooms beneath the sweeping lines of the small slotted headstock and diamond volute. The effect is graceful and almost ethereal, perfectly suited to an instrument with such an intimate and lyrical voice.
An ebony fingerboard and small pyramid bridge preserve the traditional character of the Piccolo Parlor, while gold slot head Waverly tuning machines with ebony buttons add an elegant finishing touch. Antique bone bridge and end pins complement the guitar’s old world aesthetic. The body and headstock receive a lustrous high gloss finish that reveals every detail of the spruce, koa, Brazilian rosewood, and quilted mahogany, while the satin neck remains smooth and comfortable beneath the hand.
Animal protein glue construction supports the guitar’s direct, lively response, allowing energy to move efficiently through its remarkably light frame. A 1 3/4 inch nut width and generous 2 5/16 inch bridge spacing provide ample room for precise fingerstyle work. Weighing only 3 lb 5 oz and accompanied by a hard case, the Piccolo Parlor feels nearly weightless, yet every note carries substance, color, and intention.
Complete with a Bourgeois Signature Label, the Style 42 Piccolo Parlor is far more than a lavishly appointed small body guitar. It is a celebration of rare materials, masterful voicing, and thoughtful design, bringing together Alpine spruce, The Tree mahogany, Brazilian rosewood, koa, abalone, and shaded English holly in a remarkably cohesive instrument. Its beauty draws the eye immediately, but its responsive and deeply lyrical voice is what makes it unforgettable.
