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.
Eddie's Guitars
Eddie's Guitars is a family-owned shop in Historic Maplewood, Missouri — founded by Ed Putney in 1971 and now operated alongside his son Nathan. Their boutique acoustic catalog runs deep across the modern canon, with particular strength in Bourgeois Custom Shop, Collings, Santa Cruz, Atkin, Goodall, Huss & Dalton, and Froggy Bottom. The shop operates by appointment only, delivering a private demo experience for serious players and collectors.
