Instrument Categories: Acoustic Steel String, Guitars, SOLD
Here is a new, old stock Bourgeois JOMC Jumbo OM Cutaway, built during 2015 with a German Spruce top and Indian Rosewood back and sides. The neck is Mahogany, with Ebony for the fingerboard and bridge; the headplate is highly figured and likely Madagascar Rosewood. The inlays are Mother of Pearl, and the tuners are by Grover. The nut and compensated saddle are Bone.
We’ve been poring through our stocks throughout our shop and realized that this wonderful Bourgeois JOMC Jumbo had been tucked away for some time. It’s in new condition, with minimal handling. Over time, lacquer finished naturally sinks into the pores of the wood, and that’s happening here to a degree. It is a sign that the finish is think and imposes the minimum of restriction to the wood’s vibration.
The Bourgeois JOMC Jumbo is the perhaps most versatile guitar in the extensive Bourgeois line.
In the words of Dana Bourgeois:
“JOM stands for JUMBO OM. The JOMC is an original body style developed in the late 80’s, in response to players’ requests for a mid-sized guitar having the balance and clarity of an OM–but with a bigger presence. The idea was simple: Start with the OM outline, enlarge it a bit, play around with the curves, deepen the sides, then add the Bourgeois trademark cutaway. The result is our most versatile guitar; larger than an OM, smaller than a Dreadnought, capable of handling almost any playing style you can imagine, and equally capable of operating in solo or ensemble situations.”
