  Preston Thompson Dreadnought models are all crafted to produce the tone and volume that the dreadnought guitar was originally designed to achieve. These are powerful instruments that, when needed, stand up to the volume of a mandolin, fiddle and banjo. They have the bass response that provides an almost full orchestral backing to vocals. Their mid-range response and bright trebles take flatpicking and lead playing to new levels of achievement.
  These are traditional instruments and all models are based on the famous 1937 Herringbone Dreadnought, owned by the late, great Charles Sawtelle of the award winning bluegrass band, Hot Rize. All feature Red spruce (Adirondack) tops chosen for tap tone and stiffness, advanced X brace placement, hand graduated top thickness, pre-war hand carved scalloped braces, nitro-cellulose lacquer finishes and time tested design features such as dovetail neck joints.

  The Bourgeois HSV-D features extraordinary Brazilian Rosewood back and sides, showcasing a stunning palette of colors: from deep browns to reddish hues, with distinctive spider webbing and a striking sapwood center. The Brazilian Rosewood on this guitar has a unique provenance: it was acquired by Dana Bourgeois from the estate of the late Don Sharp, a legendary master luthier. Don Sharp, who tragically passed away in November 2021, was celebrated for his exquisite custom handmade acoustic guitars, including his renowned harp guitars valued between $8,000 and $12,000. His legacy of craftsmanship adds a rich historical significance to this exceptional instrument.
