Boroughs the Beast!

This probably the 10th Boroughs guitar I've bought from Adorama. Why? Well they're excellent. You can't beat 'em for the money. For beginners, a beater, beach guitar whatever. These are the best sounding guitars in their price range. I've gifted them, resold a few, and currently have 3 I keep around for kicks. I play high end Taylor's but I love these for travel, office, and just not giving a F**k what happens to them if they get hurt. Trust me buy one, especially on sale, you won't be disappointed. Good tone and build for the money.

About Boroughs B20DBK Beginner Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar, Black

Your Love Of Music Starts Here.

Your Love Of Music Starts Here.

The Boroughs B20D Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar with Gloss Black Finish gives aspiring and seasoned guitar players alike everything they need in a beginner guitar. Boroughs considered everything down to the smallest detail to guarantee that this is the sweetest sounding, best playing guitar on the market at this price. Perfect for new students, budding songwriters, and seasoned players alike. Picking up a new instrument is a thrilling --and challenging-- moment and Boroughs designed our guitars to make sure it’s special and user-friendly for all players. Everything you need in your first guitar, nothing you don’t.

Intentional Design.

Designed by guitar players for guitar players. We start with a traditional dreadnought body design and an industry standard X-braced top. Our modern design headstock is not only stylish but has a straighter string pull making it easy to keep the instrument in tune. The spruce top, comfortable C-shaped neck and Techwood fingerboard add up to a full sounding instrument that is a pleasure to play. The traditional gloss finish in black along with ivory bindings give this instrument a striking, classic look while. 15:1 ratio, sealed-gear tuners ensure the instrument is easy to tune so players can focus on the sheer joy of playing. Quality materials and thoughtful design make for a better guitar.

Intentional Design.

It's All About The Experience.

The thin C shape neck makes for comfortable playing. Easier to play and press down on the strings, ideal for kids and beginners. The fretboard feels smooth, thanks to the environmentally friendly Techwood, which is resistant to heat and humidity that can cause damage to fingerboards. Sealed gear tuners keep dirt and grime out, extending the lifespan of the tuning gears, while the high gear ratio (15:1) allows them to tune more accurately than tuning keys commonly found on guitars at this price. Other thoughtful features include a compensated saddle for accurate intonation and a strap button at the heel of the neck.

It's All About The Experience.

Functional & Attractive.

By focusing on the features that really make a difference to aspiring players, Boroughs has been able to develop attractive instruments that stand out in playability and sound compared to other brands. Simple bindings, rosettes, and finishes result in a modern but timeless look. We use industry standard spruce for our tops, resulting in guitars that look and sound great, compared to other brands that use low-cost, alternative woods to cut corners. Techwood fingerboards are smooth to the touch and are more resilient compared to low-cost Rosewood alternatives used by other brands. Finally, the 15:1 ratio, sealed gear tuners are superior to lower gear ratio, covered tuners used by many companies on their low-cost instruments. Tunes accurately and stays in tune longer.

Functional & Attractive.
Something For Everyone To Love.

Something For Everyone To Love.

Even if you’re a seasoned player, there’s plenty to love in this acoustic guitar. The tone, timbre, and playability of the guitar is instantly appealing. Solid construction and quality components set it apart from most other instruments in its class. And the price point makes it convenient for casual playing and songwriting. Perfect for knocking around on or as an affordable songwriting companion for musicians whose main instrument is not guitar. Keyboard players and vocalists will appreciate the B20D as an alternate songwriting tool or when they travel and cannot bring their main instrument and it won’t break the bank. Take it on the beach, load it in the van, or pack it for the campground, it’s on hand whenever inspiration or the mood strikes. Boroughs considered everything down to the smallest detail to guarantee that this is the best-sounding guitar on the market at this price. You don’t need to know the details, you’ll hear them.
