Bourgeois Eddie's Guitars Exclusive Limited Edition Parlor - Sinker Redwood & Macassar Ebony #6 of 6

A masterwork of luthiery and artistry, the Bourgeois Eddie’s Guitars Exclusive Limited Edition Parlor—the final piece in a breathtaking series of six—is an exquisite blend of heritage craftsmanship and aesthetic brilliance. This instrument, a testament to the visionary Dana Bourgeois, carries the hallmarks of a man whose influence on the world of acoustic guitars is nothing short of legendary. With an unerring dedication to tone and innovation, Bourgeois has long been at the forefront of blending time-honored techniques with modern advancements, ensuring that even the most compact guitars sing with an unexpected depth and power.

The Sinker Redwood top, reclaimed from ancient riverbeds, lends this guitar a voice rich with warmth, complexity, and responsiveness, a tone further enhanced by Aged Tone Adirondack Spruce torrefied bracing, which imparts a vintage character and quickens its maturity. The deep, sonorous lows and articulate highs are given a striking visual counterpart in the mesmerizing Macassar Ebony back and sides, their dark, sinuous grain patterns as dynamic as the guitar’s sonic palette. Despite its petite parlor size, this guitar’s expertly braced body and choice of woods allow it to project with a bold, room-filling presence, defying expectation and redefining what a small-bodied instrument can achieve.

Elevating this instrument to the realm of true artistry is the one-of-a-kind Art Nouveau inlay design, conceived by the immensely talented Andrew Olson. Flowing, organic motifs inspired by the elegance of the early 20th century dance across the fretboard, headstock, and rosette, brought to life through a delicate interplay of Recon Turquoise, Mother of Pearl, Macassar Ebony, and English Holly. The intricate Art Nouveau rosette is a particular marvel, framing the soundhole with a mesmerizing blend of color and texture, a fitting prelude to the guitar’s unparalleled sonic beauty.

Every inch of this instrument speaks of refined craftsmanship—English Holly binding tracing the edges with an understated grace, a floating box tail wedge and backstrip adding subtle sophistication, and a solid headstock with diamond volute, crowned with an ebony veneer and backstrap, adorned with a gold logo on the reverse. The pyramid bridge, a nod to vintage tradition, anchors the strings with elegance, while gold Waverly tuners with ebony buttons offer both precision and opulence. With a long scale of 25 inches, a 1 3/4" nut width, and 2 5/16" bridge spacing, this parlor-sized beauty delivers both comfort and playability in perfect harmony.

Finished in a high gloss Aged Tone lacquer, with a satin-finished Honduran Mahogany neck, this 3 lb 11 oz masterpiece is as much a tactile pleasure as it is a visual and auditory one. The Signature Label inside certifies its place as the final chapter in an exclusive collection, ensuring its status as a true collector’s piece. From its intimate yet powerful voice to its breathtaking design, this Bourgeois Eddie’s Guitars Exclusive Limited Edition Parlor is more than an instrument—it is a symphony of craftsmanship, history, and artistic expression, bound together in a singular, unparalleled creation.
