This really is the most versatile guitar in the extensive Bourgeois line. In Dana’s words; “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.”

If you need further convincing, check out our audio samples by Brad Keller (flatpicking) and David Martin (fingerstyle) putting this JOMC through it’s paces. Apart from being a jaw-dropping display of musical virtuosity, these mp3 files highlight that fact that the JOMC can definitely handle an amazing array of musical styles!
