- Downeast Series Launch Edition -
The Downeast Series is a new line from the Beaujolais brand, manufactured entirely by Eastman based on Dana Beaujolais's rigorous standards.

The Eastman craftsmen involved in this series regularly visit the Bourgeois workshop in the United States to receive direct instruction from Dana Bourgeois and master luthier James Whitkas on Bourgeois's unique "voicing" technique (tuning the guitar's soundboard).
Two years after its launch, and after practical guidance and an overwhelming number of prototypes, the DownEast series was finally born, in which every step of the process is completed solely by Eastman.

The name of the Down East series originates from maritime terminology used in the coastal region of Maine, where the Beaujolais workshop is located.
This instrument evokes the region's craftsmanship, indomitable spirit, and maritime precision, and pays tribute to the joint voyage with Eastman, who created it.

From its inception and design to its actual production, this product was created without any compromise in any aspect. It is the culmination of the collaboration between Eastman and Bourgeois, and can be described as a dream series that makes the Bourgeois sound accessible to many players.

The inaugural shipment of this series is called the Launch Edition, and it features tonewoods carefully selected by Dana himself and has undergone rigorous inspection by Dana himself.
The launch edition is limited to 125 pieces worldwide. Of those, only a very small number will be available in Japan, totaling just 28 pieces.
Don't miss this opportunity to acquire this extremely rare and valuable guitar.


- Bourgeois Blues/DE L-DBO All Hawaiian Koa -
Named the Bourgeois Blues, this model is a small guitar in the L-DBO style, based on Gibson's L series.
This guitar features a beautiful all-Hawaiian koa body with a stunning wood grain, and an exotic ziricote fingerboard and bridge. Ivoroid binding is applied to the body, fingerboard, and headstock, and the headstock top has a gloss finish, resulting in a simple yet luxurious design.
Beaujolais' original L-DBO body features slender top bracing and a slightly larger soundhole relative to its body size, giving you the volume and dynamics of playing a guitar with a larger body size.
The soft, bright tone unique to all-Hawaiian koa wood pairs perfectly with the crisp resonance of the L-DBO pickup. Combined with its comfortable body, this is a guitar you'll want to play forever. Both in looks and sound, this is definitely a guitar we recommend! Don't miss out!
