Boucher SG-51-MV Guitar #IN-1707-OMH

Short Description:

Master-grade Adirondack spruce and rosewood acoustic with maple binding and herringbone purfling.

What We Think:

Handcrafted in Canada, the Boucher SG-51-MV pairs a Master Grade AAAA Adirondack red spruce soundboard with solid East Indian rosewood back and sides for rich projection, articulate dynamics, and deep overtones. Weighing a nimble 4 lbs 2 oz, its hand-scalloped forward-shifted X-bracing maximizes acoustic resonance. Framed in maple body binding with herringbone purfling and rosette accents, the satin-finished South American mahogany neck features a 1.750" Tusq nut, a 25.5" scale, and a solid ebony fingerboard adorned with mother-of-pearl markers. Outfitted with closed-gear Gotoh tuners, a synthetic tortoise pickguard, and an ebony bridge, this heirloom-grade OM model comes with a signed interior label and a deluxe TKL tweed hardshell case.
