Bourgeois 00-14 Hogtop – Compact, warm and exceptionally responsive
The Bourgeois 00-14 Hogtop is a premium, hand-built orchestra-style acoustic guitar designed for players who seek an intimate, direct and versatile tone. This compact 14-fret body feels lightweight, comfortable and surprisingly powerful. Thanks to its fully solid mahogany construction, the instrument delivers a warm, woody response with strong projection and impressive clarity. It’s the perfect guitar for singer-songwriters, fingerstyle players and anyone who appreciates an authentic, traditional acoustic sound.
Bourgeois 00-14 Hogtop – Craftsmanship, balance and musicality in one
The Bourgeois 00-14 Hogtop is built to the highest standards known in the boutique-guitar world. The body is crafted entirely from solid mahogany – top, back and sides – giving the guitar a strong midrange, quick attack and a clear, organic resonance. Bourgeois’ renowned voicing work gives this model an exceptionally rich tonal palette: singing trebles, warm mids and a surprisingly solid low end for a compact 00-size instrument.
The 25" scale length provides an ideal balance between string tension and playability. The mahogany neck with its Traditional Even "C" profile feels immediately familiar and smooth, while the ebony fingerboard ensures precision, clarity and effortless articulation. The high-gloss finish enhances both visual appeal and tonal resonance, allowing the wood to vibrate freely. Combined with its lightweight build, the guitar offers outstanding responsiveness—whether you play delicate fingerstyle passages or strong rhythm work.
Because of its compact size, the 00-14 Hogtop is ideal for home use, studio recording and intimate live performances. Its warm, focused tone fits beautifully into a mix without overpowering. For players seeking an expressive, musically versatile small-body guitar, this Bourgeois is an exceptional choice.
