Over ten years ago, Luke Bryan hand-selected Black Walnut timber from his own Flint Rock Farm for a project most people thought was impossible. This was not a quick marketing deal. Those logs sat in a Maine workshop for twelve long years.
The result? Luke Bryan’s Signature Bourgeois guitar project. A masterpiece that carries the literal DNA of the artist’s home in every single guitar chord.

People are already calling this the ‘Holy Grail’ of modern country gear. One fan noted that the custom antler inlays make the guitar look as wild as the woods it came from. Another viewer said the tone is so clear it sounds like Luke is sitting right in the living room. It is a rare moment where the hype actually matches the craftsmanship.
Transitioning from the farm to the workbench takes a special kind of patience. While Luke provided the heart of the project master builder Dana Bourgeois provided the hands. This is where the raw timber meets the fine art of lutherie.

Inside the quiet Maine workshop, you can see the slow, steady shaving of the wood. This process, called voicing, is why these instruments possess such a haunting resonance. It is a focused side of the music world that rarely gets any spotlight.
