The Bourgeois The Artist Small Jumbo Carved Back is breathtaking from every angle, an instrument whose dramatic beauty is matched by an equally compelling voice. Its glossy black Aged Tone Adirondack spruce top creates a striking contrast against the glowing Cordovan finish of the carved curly maple back and sides, while vivid turquoise appointments lend the entire guitar an unexpected flash of color. Elegant, powerful, and wonderfully unconventional, this is The Artist in the fullest sense of the name.
At the heart of the guitar is an Aged Tone Adirondack spruce soundboard, supported by torrefied Adirondack spruce bracing and assembled with animal protein glue. Adirondack brings tremendous dynamic range, clarity, and headroom, while the Aged Tone treatment gives the guitar a quick, dry, seasoned response from its very first notes. It can speak softly with sensitivity and nuance, then rise effortlessly beneath a heavier attack without losing its balance or composure. There is strength here, but also refinement, with individual notes emerging cleanly and chords remaining open, articulate, and richly dimensional.
The carved Aged Tone curly maple back and sides bring an entirely different energy to the familiar warmth of the Small Jumbo. Maple contributes definition, immediacy, and a beautifully focused fundamental, while the carved back adds projection and a sense of sculpted depth to the voice. The result is powerful without becoming boomy, bright without sounding brittle, and exceptionally clear across the entire register. The Small Jumbo body offers the comfort and responsiveness of a medium sized guitar while its broad lower bout supplies impressive authority and presence. It is an inspired platform for maple, equally capable of accompanying a voice, cutting through an ensemble, or revealing the finest details of a delicate fingerstyle arrangement.
Few builders could bring such an ambitious instrument to life with the conviction of Dana Bourgeois. As the founder and Master Luthier of Bourgeois Guitars, Dana has spent more than five decades behind the bench studying the relationship between wood, structure, and sound. His ability to select, tap, voice, and refine each soundboard has made him one of the most influential figures in modern acoustic guitar making. Dana’s work respects the great American instruments of the past, yet his career has never been defined by imitation. His innovations in voicing, torrefaction, construction, and tonal design have continually pushed the steel string guitar forward.
Working alongside Dana is Master Luthier James Witkus, whose influence has become increasingly important to the instruments emerging from the Bourgeois workshop. James shares responsibility for the selection and voicing of the company’s tops and backs, helping ensure that every guitar carries the balance, responsiveness, and musical character associated with the Bourgeois name. If Dana established the tonal language of Bourgeois Guitars, James has become one of its most trusted contemporary interpreters, bringing his own experienced hands and ears to the continued evolution of the company. The Artist reflects that partnership beautifully, combining Dana’s lifetime of accumulated knowledge with James’s essential role in shaping the instruments of today.
Visually, the guitar is nothing short of extraordinary. English holly binding traces the body, fingerboard, and contour headstock with a clean ivory line, framing the blacktop and richly figured Cordovan maple with understated elegance. Turquoise tile purfling surrounds the soundboard, while a single oval ring of turquoise encircles the soundhole. A curly maple floating box tail wedge and English holly heel cap complete the body with quietly sophisticated details.
An ebony fingerboard carries mother of pearl and abalone chevron inlays, echoed by the inlaid rectangular Madagascar rosewood bridge. Turquoise accents appear at the bridge and again across the ebony headstock veneer, where a turquoise Bourgeois logo and chevron inlay crown the elegant contour headstock. Gold Waverly tuning machines with ebony buttons provide the finishing touch, complemented by grained ivoroid bridge and end pins.
The Aged Tone curly maple neck receives a smooth satin finish, while the body and headstock are presented in deep high gloss. A short 25 inch scale gives the strings a comfortable, supple feel, and the 1 23/32 inch nut width with 2.2 inch bridge spacing provides generous room for precise articulation. Weighing only 4 lb 4 oz and accompanied by a hard shell case, this remarkable Small Jumbo feels alive in the hands.
Complete with a Bourgeois Signature Label, The Artist Small Jumbo Carved Back is more than an elaborate custom guitar. It is a meeting of tradition and imagination, darkness and color, strength and delicacy. Every curve, every inlay, and every note reflects the work of master luthiers who understand that the finest guitars are not merely constructed. They are voiced, sculpted, and brought to life.
