Master Grade Torrefied Adirondack Tone in a 12-Fret Design
$6,439.00
Retail: $7,160.00
The Boucher HG-56-M is a premium 12-fret acoustic that combines exceptional responsiveness with remarkable warmth and depth. Its Master Grade torrefied Adirondack spruce top delivers a rich, broken-in character with outstanding headroom and clarity, while the 12-fret design enhances resonance and low-end fullness. The hand-scalloped Adirondack bracing helps the guitar feel lively and effortless under the fingers, responding beautifully to both a light touch and a stronger attack. Elegant details like herringbone trim, maple binding, and open-gear tuners complete the package. Warm, resonant, and full of character, this HG-56-M offers a refined voice with impressive power and nuance.
Our HG-56 is crafted for the best tonal results. It will deliver mids and bass depth while finger picking even using a capo at the 7th fret. Evenness and richness of sound will surprise the most accomplished players.
The ability of this instrument to adjust to your musical style will elevate your playing to the point of your finding it difficult to put it down. Many fingerstyle players have told us that they feel immediately became better musicians as soon as they played our Heritage Goose. This gives us at Boucher Guitars a great sense of pride to help you accomplish your full musical potential and to boost your creativity.
The Heritage Goose HG-56 is built using torrefied Adirondack spruce personally selected by Robin Boucher for both the bracing and the soundboard. Its incomparable playability and versatility will make it the ideal guitar to satisfy your most ambitious aspirations.
The HG-56 is the perfect guitar for your Fingerstyle projects!
A few years back a wonderful man named Robin Boucher drove to Sound Pure studios all the way from Canada. In his back seat, nestled in lovely tweed cases, he had some of the finest acoustic guitars to ever cross our northern border. We became immediate friends and his work was mind-blowing. The clarity of the tone, the immaculate fit and finish, the effortless playability. To top it all off, Robin got his start as a WOOD DEALER. He happens to live in an Adirondack red spruce forest!
