About Bourgeois Guitars
Bourgeois Guitars are built in Lewiston, Maine, by a shop led by Dana Bourgeois — one of the most quietly influential voicers in American acoustic guitar making. Dana spent decades voicing tops for other respected shops before opening this one, and players who care about acoustic tone have long traded notes about "Bourgeois thump" the way wine drinkers talk about terroir. The guitars sound dry, fundamental, and unmistakably his. Eastman acquired the shop in 2019, which set off some hand-wringing in boutique circles — five years on, Dana's still in Lewiston voicing tops, and the worry has faded.
About Peach Guitars
Peach Guitars opened in 1991 in a Braintree craft centre — initially selling guitars alongside metal detectors — before founder Derek Peachey hired blues player John Priest, who eventually took over with his father Alan. In 2017 the business consolidated into a 2-floor superstore on Colchester's Severalls Industrial Estate, now displaying over 1,500 guitars. A western-themed showroom called the Peach Saloon, with stage and bar, hosts in-store events; each shipped guitar receives inspection and a professional setup.
