About Boucher Guitars
Boucher Guitars are built in Berthier-sur-Mer, Quebec, in the Canadian Appalachians. Founded by Robin Boucher in 2005, the shop is anchored by a regional resource most builders dream about — Picea Rubens, the same Adirondack red spruce traditionally associated with golden-era Martin and Gibson tops, harvested from the surrounding forests. Boucher uses the best of these tops in their own guitars and supplies several thousand per year to other top acoustic builders worldwide — one of the only boutique luthiers who is also a tier-one tonewood supplier to the industry. They were the first to introduce torrefied Picea Rubens soundboards, which specialty magazines and luthiers have called the most significant innovation in high-end acoustic guitar in forty years. The catalog spans Dreadnought through Parlor across 12-fret and 14-fret variants, each guitar hand-built over twelve weeks.
About The Acoustic Shoppe
The Acoustic Shoppe is a family-owned shop in Springfield, Missouri, run by The Chapmans — a touring bluegrass family. Every serial-numbered instrument gets a 23-point professional setup and individual high-resolution photography before going up, so the listing shows the specific guitar you'd be buying. Their boutique acoustic shelves run deep on Bourgeois and Boucher, alongside Furch, Atkin, Gallagher, and McPherson — a small-shop alternative to the catalog dealers.
