Using the renown system of hand voicing, all Bourgeois Touchstone Series soundboards are optimized for tonal excellence by a team of skilled luthiers in Maine. The back and sides of Country Boy/TS guitars are made with carefully selected Mahogany and are assembled by a small group of Eastman’s talented luthiers, each one is carefully trained in Dana Bourgeois’ time honored building techniques.
