Bourgeois guitars always have exceptional wood sets on their Namm show guitars and this Banjo Killer is no exception with its eye catching Bear claw sitka top and figured Sapele mahogany sides and back. Top it off with a beautiful burst finish on the top and Brazilian fretboard and bridge and you have one stunning guitar! All the tone you would expect from a Banjo Killer is there, warmth, bloom mid range, power sustain and a crisp top end that will make those banjo players take notice. This guitar has been upgraded with large stainless steel frets and is in excellent shape with no real wear to speak of.
