    Thank you JP for another great review! Yes, our new tools allow us to make better guitars than ever before. This PS-SG-162 is a great example of how our D-size guitars have improved over the last few months. We were, as always, honoured to learn that you had decided to acquire this guitar. Thank you very much for sharing your impressions with the world, we truly appreciate it!
    Best regards from Robin and the whole team!

      Я из России. К сожалению купить такую гитару не имею возможности, но слушая и смотря Джона я влюблён в инструменты Робина. Это Гварнери нашего времени. Мир скажет вам спасибо за такие красивые и звучные гитары. Здоровья вам , создатели гитар и творческих успехов.

    I totally get you, JP. I have owned my Boucher OM PS-SG-161 made from the very maple as this Dread for just over a year now. It is - hands down - the most satisfying guitar I have ever played or owned. It sounds better and better every day. I absolutely love my guitar and it will never leave my hands so yeah, I totally get you, JP!

      Yamaha makes great guitars! They beat everything else or nearly everything else at their price levels. I got a standard revstar pro floor model for around $600. Unbelievable for the price. Their $4000 acoustic is an exception -- usually they are fine working musician guitars at down-to-earth prices.

    Everytime you introduce a Boucher My bottom jaw drops. To be that consistent everytime is mind boggling to me. Beautiful looking and sounding guitar. Can't beat that maple sound. Makes me want to play one, and make a stack of french toast.(I don't like pancakes) I have an Epi Dove and that Maple b&s sounds different than anything else I own. You call Robin an alien, I call him " The Wood Whisperer! Great job as always JP, thanks and love you man!! 👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶😎😎😎😎😎

    I bought a Boucher OM 41 last January and it is without question the finest guitar I have ever played. When I first played it for my wife, she asked if it has a lttle amplifier in it. It has all the volume that I need for my finger picking without picks. Each note is equal in projection. Pure, clean and it's all mine! Thank you Robin and thank you J.P.

    That's interesting that this isn't one of his 'torrified" guitars and yet it's your favourite.

Seriously thinking about laying down the cash for one of these.

    It's literally Jumbo shrunk to a dreadnaught. Like the sound has been squeezed in that body and yelling to get out. A good term would be Natural Compression 😂😂😂. This is to big of a guitar for bluegrass. This guitar would shine with the Halifax Symphony like that show you did with BooBoo. The perfect guitar for you since you do a lot of solo and duo work. The only other way would to have it plugged in and dialed down, but would be a waste lol...

    Man... Boucher makes guitars that just do not seem like they should be possible when you're playing them. My BG-42-GM is like playing a Marshall at volume.... but an acoustic? It doesn't even make sense... and I see they have one of these locally... that's dangerous for my wallet....
