Description

The Downeast Series is an innovative series created by a collaboration between Bourgeois Guitars and Eastman Guitars!
This special model is a high-quality model that goes beyond the concept of cost performance and has been tuned by Infini Custom Works.

Bourgeois Guitars is a top American guitar brand that is on par with Collings and Santa Cruz.
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.

This is a Hartman Guitars original modified model of Beaujois' iconic OMC Soloist/DE, which is specialized for fingerstyle and is part of the Downeast series, equipped with a dual pickup system made by Infini Custom Works.
Fujioka from Infini has thoroughly set up the equipment so that you can enjoy everything from percussive slam playing to beautiful melodic solo guitar!!

Infini Custom Works' dual pickup systems are individually handcrafted to suit the individual characteristics of each guitar.
"I want to produce a powerful palm sound with slam playing..." "I want to fully express the delicate nuances of a beautiful, melodic solo guitar..."
Don't miss out on this special guitar, customized by our staff to meet the needs of fingerstyle guitarists!


◆The OMC Soloist, Beaujois' signature model for fingerstyle guitarists, is now available at DownEast with unbeatable value for money!! ◆

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 first shipment of the Downeast 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.
In addition, 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.


Anfini Custom Works dual pickup system delivers exceptional performance for fingerstyle playing.

In order to faithfully reproduce the guitar's original, wonderful tone even in line sound, it comes pre-installed with a contact piezo x magnetic dual pickup system, which is extremely effective for fingerstyle playing.
This type of dual system is popular with many fingerstyle guitarists, including Andy McKee and Kotaro Oshio.
By blending the vivid acoustic guitar sound obtained from a contact pickup with the thick, forward sound that is characteristic of a magnetic pickup, you can create a vivid, thick line sound that is ideal for fingerstyle playing.

The contact piezo on the main side (tip side) uses "Enfini Custom Works R-Zero Contact Pro BACNT".
This is an original contact pickup that is handcrafted from piezo elements and installed by Mitsunori Fujioka, president of Infini Custom Works, a company renowned for producing some of the best acoustic guitar pickup systems in the industry, to suit the characteristics of each individual guitar.
This time, we have selected the BACNT, a bass-enhanced model that is also suitable for slam playing techniques!
The extremely lightweight design allows for a vivid acoustic sound, powerful bass, and palm sound without compromising the sound of the guitar itself.

The magnetic pickup is a DiMarzio DP234.
Compared to the standard "SUNRISE S-2" in dual systems, it lacks a bit of low-end punch, but it produces a silky, forward-thinking sound that emphasizes chord tones and melody lines, making it a pickup that has been gaining attention in the solo guitar world in recent years as a new standard magnetic pickup!

We asked Mr. Fujioka to set up the contact and magnetic pickups, and the setup is designed to bring out the full potential of both pickups.
The magnetic is also designed to be easily removable, allowing it to be used for recording without interfering with the live sound.
By blending these two excellent pickups, you can achieve the wide range, nuanced reproduction, and rich sound that is characteristic of acoustic guitars.
From percussive slamming of the body to ballads with beautiful melodies, this will be a great advantage for fingerstyle guitarists!


※※※
Since it is a passive dual pickup system, it is used by connecting it to a preamplifier with 2-channel input using a stereo cable.
This guitar does not come with a stereo cable, preamp, etc. We can also provide information and suggestions on peripheral equipment and how to use it.
For more information, please feel free to contact Akita, the Hartman Guitars representative.
