Description
Introducing the Touchstone Signature Series:
With the new Touchstone Signature, Bourgeois Guitars continues to bridge the gap between tradition and innovation, offering an instrument that resonates with both the aspiring musician and the seasoned professional.
The Touchstone Series is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship that is synonymous with the Bourgeois name. Offering a refined playing experience, hand-voiced tone, and world-class appointments to a wider range of players than ever before. At the heart of the Touchstone Signature is its meticulously hand-voiced top, crafted with precision and care in the Lewiston, Maine workshop. Our dedication to quality ensures each note resonates with clarity, depth, and character—the hallmarks of the Bourgeois sound. The magic of the Touchstone Series comes from Dana’s renown system of hand-voicing. Over the last 50 years he has refined this old-world technique and is now recognized worldwide as a foremost authority on guitar-top voicing. 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 integrate the tops into Dana’s designs, bringing each guitar to life.
