Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.

The Bourgeois OMC Soloist Touchstone is a refined orchestra-model acoustic that blends premium materials with exceptional balance and versatility. Its Lutz spruce top delivers a lively, responsive character with impressive headroom and clarity, while the Macassar ebony back and sides contribute remarkable note definition, depth, and a rich overtone profile. The OMC body shape offers a comfortable playing experience with excellent articulation across the entire frequency range, making it equally suited for fingerstyle, flatpicking, and contemporary acoustic playing. Elegant appointments such as gold Schaller tuners with ebony buttons, ziricote head veneer, and classic squares-and-diamonds inlays highlight its upscale aesthetic. Articulate, resonant, and highly expressive, the OMC Soloist Touchstone offers a sophisticated voice with exceptional clarity and nuance.

The Soloist Returns for a New Generation

 

The Soloist/TS Launch Edition marks the debut of a new era for Bourgeois’ celebrated Soloist model, now available for the first time in our Touchstone Series. Built on Dana Bourgeois’ legendary Soloist platform, the OM cutaway (OMC), which helped define the modern fingerstyle guitar.

 

The newest addition to our award-winning Touchstone Series features an individually carved and hand-voiced soundboard, crafted in our Lewiston, Maine workshop, preserving the luthier’s touch that gives Bourgeois guitars their world-renowned tone and response.
