The Bourgeois Touchstone Series represents the pinnacle of hand-crafted guitar-making, a collaboration between Dana Bourgeois and the Eastman Music Company. These guitars embody Dana Bourgeois’ half-century of luthier expertise and his renowned tonal craftsmanship, offering players an exceptional instrument with a legacy of sound excellence.
Each Touchstone Series guitar begins with a meticulously selected old-growth Alaskan Sitka Spruce soundboard, braced with Adirondack Spruce sourced from Maine’s northern forests. This combination provides a rich, vibrant tone with exceptional projection and clarity. Dana Bourgeois’ signature hand-voicing technique—refined over 50 years—ensures that each top is crafted to perfection, delivering a voice that is both unique and resonant.
Once the Touchstone tops are approved by Dana Bourgeois, they are vacuum-sealed and shipped to Eastman’s workshop. There, a select group of luthiers, trained in Bourgeois' tonal philosophy and construction methods, integrates these tops into Dana's designs, bringing each guitar to life with meticulous craftsmanship.
The Bourgeois Touchstone Series Vintage OM Acoustic Guitar combines exquisite materials with unparalleled craftsmanship, creating an instrument that offers a deeply satisfying musical experience. Whether for performance or personal enjoyment, this guitar stands as a testament to the artistry and dedication of its creators.

We endeavour to show the actual instrument in stock whenever possible, but the guitar in stock may differ slightly from the one shown on our website. Materials used can look different from guitar to guitar, including timber grain and colour, parts colours and finishing. If an instrument is a one-of-a-kind or preowned guitar, the picture will always be of the actual guitar in stock, but production models may have slight variations to the picture shown.
If you're after a particular look, feel free to email us at info@acousticcentre.com.au or send us a message through our chat service to request photos of the actual guitar in stock. We are more than happy to send through pictures of all in-stock guitars, to make your choice easier.
