BOUCHER SG-52-GM STUDIO GOOSE
Our SG-52 is especially crafted to fulfill the needs of demanding guitarists. Whether the guitarist is looking for precise acoustic sounds while performing live or to meet the stringent requirements of studio recording engineers, this model will provide it.
Each Adirondack red spruce soundboard of the Studio Goose is personally selected by Robin Boucher with his commitment to provide the wood qualities needed to deliver high end sound.
The playability and versatility of this guitar makes it the ideal instrument to channel your inspirations into harmonious melodies.
MASTER GRADE PACK
The world of guitar making proclaims that at least 70% of the sound properties of a high-end acoustic guitar have a connection with its soundboard and bracing. Boucher Guitars supports this view. The quality of the materials used in the making of a soundboard is, therefore, crucial. The Adirondack red spruce is, to everyone, the Holy Grail of wood species to consider when designing soundboards. However, its great rarity limits its use among manufacturers. Imagine the impact of a “Master Grade” Adirondack red spruce soundboard on the sonority of your guitar! And that is not all! All Boucher guitars with the MASTER GRADE PACK include a rosette ornamented with abalone inlay and Koa body bindings. This is to support the quality assurance and extreme rarity of a Master Grade Adirondack red spruce soundboard.
We thought of you and of everything!
GOLD PACK
Maturity is a great quality, particularly when it comes to acoustic guitars. In 2010, Boucher Guitars innovated by developing with the collaboration of The University Laval of Quebec, a unique roasting process that accelerates the aging of its Adirondack red spruce soundboards by eliminating lignin, but without altering its essential components of the wood, cellulose and hemicellulose. This industry first resulted in the launch of our famous Gold Touch top option at NAMM 2011. Optional on our guitars from the Studio Goose and Bluegrass Goose Series, the GOLD PACK also includes gold plated machine head tuners. For those who want to afford “sound maturity” without the long wait. We thought about you and everything!
