Handcrafted in Quebec, Canada, the Boucher Studio Master SM-JP-56 is a premium 12-fret acoustic guitar featuring a Venetian cutaway designed for effortless upper-fret access and incredible acoustic resonance. At its heart is a Gold Touch® torrefied AAAA Adirondack red spruce soundboard supported by hand-scalloped forward-shifted AAAA Adirondack spruce X-bracing, delivering seasoned, dynamic projection with exceptional headroom and open responsiveness. Built with a solid South American mahogany neck, a solid ebony fingerboard and bridge, and a 1.750" bone nut, it features high-gloss finishing throughout and refined appointment details including figure-rich Koa body binding, herringbone purfling, an abalone rosette, and nickel Gotoh open-gear tuners. Complete with a TKL deluxe tweed hardshell case, it represents the pinnacle of modern Canadian luthiery.
On July 7, 2016, JP Cormier bought his first Boucher guitar. Since then, and without asking for anything back, this artist with immeasurable talent and generosity constantly praises the merits of our guitars. Wishing to point out the great contribution of JP regarding the growing popularity of our guitars, we wanted to offer him a guitar. But not just any guitar! A JP Cormier Signature model truly designed to reflect the great qualities of this great ambassador of the Boucher Guitars brand. So, we had to create a guitar with a unique look and a frank, generous, authentic, and versatile sound. The addition of an exclusive cutaway to our 12-fret 000 body-size adorned with a neck headstock design reminiscent of all our models is a reminder of the great JP’s qualities.
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!
