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.  Not all top end, either--the bass response alone on this 000 makes some dreads sound tiny.  STUNNING!
