The Boucher SM-JP-56 JP Cormier Acoustic Guitar is a versatile 000 body size with cutaway that packs a punch. It features a hand selected torrefied AAAA Adirondack spruce top for a solid note fundamental and played in warmth and Indian rosewood sides and back for present bass and lush overtones. Evenness and richness of sound on this guitar will surprise the most accomplished players.
Here is what Boucher has to say about this guitar:
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.
