Bourgeois Guitars: Touchstone Vintage Dreadnought

Introducing the Bourgeois Touchstone series, a collection of hand-voiced guitars designed by Dana Bourgeois. These guitars are crafted with Bourgeois’ signature attention-to-detail, bringing his legendary tone and craftsmanship to more players than ever before.

Drawing on his half-century of experience as a luthier, Dana and his team carefully select each old-growth Alaskan Sitka Spruce soundboard by hand before bracing it with Adirondack Spruce harvested from deep in northern forests of Maine.

The Touchstone series is a collaboration between Bourgeois Guitars and Eastman Music Company. After Touchstone tops are approved by Dana, they are vacuum sealed and shipped to Eastman’s workshop where a select group of Eastman’s finest luthiers, carefully trained in Bourgeois’ tonal philosophy and construction methodology integrates the tops into Dana’s designs, bringing each guitar to life.
