Recently Richard Chapman, very nice guy, great guitarist and author of The Complete Guitarist visited. He was kind enough to write the following on his blog.

“Yesterday I traveled to Brighton and went  into the Acoustic Music Company to talk to the owner, Trevor Moyle. This is a very good quality shop. He was helpful, spoke intelligently about sound, and I played a number of guitars which were outstanding. A few years ago he recommended Bourgeois guitars. I  played his Bourgeois Country Boy OM and loved it.. It has bright lustrous harmonic flavors, a very good balance between registers, excellent string separation and incredible sustain.. This new guitar is fantastic and for the last 36 hours I’ve played it all day and night.”
