- Bourgeois Guitars - Bourgeois Guitars, created by guitar maker Dana Bourgeois, is a top American guitar brand, alongside Collings and Santa Cruz. The guitars are made using caref ully selected materials, solid technical skills, and designs born from Dana's extensive experience, and they combine ``high precision as instruments'' with ``a rich, musical tone,'' earning them high praise from many musicians. - Downeast Series Launch Edition - The Downeast Series is a new lineup from the Beaujois brand, with all processes carried out at Eastman based on Dana Beaujois's strict standards. The Eastman craftsmen working on this series regularly visit the Beaujois workshop in the United States to receive direct instruction in Beaujois's unique voicing (tuning the guitar top) technique from Dana Beaujois and master luthier James Witkus. After two years of hands-on training and countless prototypes, the Down East series was finally born, with every process completed entirely by Eastman. The name Downeast Series comes from a maritime term from the coast of Maine, where Beaujois Atelier is located. It evokes the region's craft traditions, tenacity, and maritime sophistication, and pays homage to the voyage he and Eastman shared that gave birth to the instrument. This product was created without any compromise, from its conception to its design and actual production. It is the culmination of collaboration between Eastman and Beaujois, and is a dream series that has made the Beaujois sound available to many players. The commemorative first shipment of this series will be called the Launch Edition, and will feature tonewoods personally selected and meticulously inspected by Dana himself. The Launch Edition is limited to 125 units worldwide, of which only 28 will be available in Japan. Don't miss your chance to purchase this extremely rare and valuable guitar. - OMC Soloist/DE - The Soloist is the most iconic model that symbolizes Beaujois. It features a beautiful silhouette with an OM (orchestra) body and a unique, shallowly curved Venetian cutaway. Its sophisticated design and sound have earned it a reputation as a "modern classic," and it has received tremendous acclaim, especially from fingerstyle players. Its looks belie its thick, substantial fundamental tone, and despite its OM body, its wide dynamic range makes it feel like you're playing a dreadnought. And yet, it responds quickly to picking, with the entire body vibrating supplely even with a light touch, and even when you touch harder, the sound image is retained without being distorted, resulting in a sound balance that is incredibly faithful to the player's touch nuances. This model best reflects Dana's original design philosophy in both looks and design, and its lineage is clearly evident in this Downeast series. It is an affordable, high-cost performance guitar priced at around 300,000 yen, but regardless of the price, it is a masterpiece that you will be convinced is a genuinely good guitar. The Down East Series guitars that have just arrived in our store were carefully selected one by one from the large stock of guitars by Hartman Guitars floor chief Akita, who visited the Eastman factory at the end of November 2025. We carefully select each guitar, from the wood grain on the top and back to the subtle differences in sound. This is definitely a recommended product in both looks and sound!
