Sound Pure's Take

Whenever we get word from Boucher that he has some special sets of wood in stock with plans to make a limited run of instruments, our answer is always the same: "when can we get ours?"  Robin gets the best of the best but this stuff is just on an other level entirely--we've never, ever seen Maple with such dramatic figuring/coloring!  And rest assured, this isn't just easy on the eyes--the combination of Adirondack and Maple of this quality makes for an improbably lively, crisp voice, right out of the case.  The Jumbo variant of this limited run has the biggest, clearest presence (volume, too, but more than that) of anything like it we've heard.  An absolutely massive force that can sit clearly in a mix as well as it can back even the most powerful voices.
