1:06:48 The Mona Lisa….. In all aspects of the word this is the single most brilliant piece of music, I’ve ever in my life heard. Thank you all so much. I have no words. I have the JP signature model and I don’t play it often but when I do, no matter how long it sits I. It’s case it always comes out singing right on key.

Stellar song indeed, Cam. It's Bruce Cockburn's "Foxglove" from his 1973 Night Vision album. There's a great online tutorial for it at Shutup & Play Guitar Tutorials. You'll be playing it on your own JP Sig Boucher in no time!

Hello! Superb video with the Maestro and Guillaume. Boucher guitars are my favorite, I have 3 myself. I allow myself to point out a small error: Yogi is apparently made of Indian rosewood, so it's an HG56 and not an HG46 as it's written ;) . The song JP is playing with Mona Lisa is GORGEOUS!

boucher reminds me of a fellow I know well - George Wilson. Except George only built evenings and weekends as his day job was making violins and harpsichords and other stuff of the sort. But the stuff Robin does (chasing a lighter guitar rather than something heavy and strong and safe) and keeping the mids is very similar. It must be 10 times more complicated to try to do that with a group of people vs. building entirely by yourself and having control of every part of production.

Just brilliant… thank you JP, Ginger, Robin and Guillaume for producing this amazing informative video. For years I’d seen Boucher guitars hanging on the wall, but never played one because I felt it was out of my price range. But because of JP’s excitement for the brand I gave one a try. That was it... within the month I'd raised the money by selling a camera and my Martin D35. This fall I bought a HG 56... it sounds as good as Yogi. I'm one very happy guy.

Sending you a little tip to thank you for all of the good info about Boucher Guitars...many hours of viewing videos with you and Robin! I'm an accompanist for a French Canadian trad fiddle session and a longtime member of an English ceilidh band, Rattlebone, playing a unique (obscure) repertoire of Anglo dance and folk tunes to an indifferent public. Recently I decided that a dreadnought would best serve my purpose after 26 years playing an OM (Larrivee). A few days ago, my beautiful BG-52 Gi arrived from Glenn in Antigonish. Played out with the fiddlers the other night and it was great. Looking forward to see how it holds up against melodeon, tuba and whistle in Rattlebone. I have to say thanks to you for getting me there along with Robin, Guillaume and Glenn (and my wife for coming around after her initial horror).

One minor detail...the Yogi/Boo boo reference is funny (I grew up watching Yogi Bear cartoons) BUT I must point out that actually...Boo Boo is the smaller bear, Yogi is the big fella. Opposite J.P.'s Boucher guitars. 😃 Awesome video, awesome guitars, awesome player!! Wow...

Beautiful guitars with a great sound. I just wish they offered a wider nut than 1 3/4". I'm 6' 4" and as I've gotten older I've found that I need a wider fretboard and wider string spacing. I really like the feel of the 2 3/8" spacing at the bridge but I need a 1 13/16" nut now.

Does robin build a 12 frett norman blake style om or ooo guitar with stick bridge and extra long glue in saddle. With bridge placed some where in the mid center lower bout sweet spot. Choice of sound board would be bear claw engelman spruce. Red spruce xx scalloped braceing. African mahogany back and sides. A non slotted head stock and ebony round head waverly open tuneing gears and k and k pick up. With a low oval performance hard rock maple neck,ebony frett board and bridge,and lets top it off with waverly , ebony button open back tuners. Thats not asking for to mutch is it.
