Sound Pure's Take
Immerse yourself in the exceptional sound of the Boucher JP Cormier SM-JP-56! This magnificent instrument, a truly sensational singing machine, features a torrefied Adirondack Red Spruce top and hand-scalloped bracing, giving it a powerful, resonant voice. With a beautiful Koa body binding and herringbone purfling, its classic aesthetic is just as impressive as its tone. The rock-solid mahogany neck and solid ebony fingerboard offer an incredibly playable feel. Each note you strike on this guitar, a testament to passionate craftsmanship, will ring with an undeniable richness and clarity. This is more than a purchase; it's a sound investment in your musical future!
From Boucher Guitars
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.
