    Having visited Boucher Guitars and met Robin a few months ago, this captured his essence and the vibe of this company. It’s makes me proud to own 3 Boucher guitars, and even more proud to be Canadian. These guys make tremendous acoustics and so down to earth. We need more people like this in the music community.

  • @thepokerpilotapp

    Great video. I learned two things. First, wasn’t aware Robin was an originator to the torrefication process- impressive. Secondly, that Robin has such a welcoming disposition displayed in many ways by not locking down an invention that has helped the ENTIRE community instead of just his business- much respect. Hat’s off my friend.

    • @Purple_Pixel
      @Purple_Pixel 8 місяців тому +2

      Robin got a Montreal university (McGill I think) to do the R&D on this. He did not originate it. They perfected it though with an enhanced process that that is more effective. In particular, it uses a lower temperature and longer period and a set preparation of the wood prior to the torrification.

    Every aspect of this is incredibly enjoyable. It is an inspiration to listen to someone so centered as M. Boucher, and your playing really gave depth to the incredible nuance and character of each of his creations.

    You know, one of the most captivating things is listening to people who are passionate and knowledgeable show their expertise. Whether it's going to watch a musician play in concert, watch a great luthier work on a guitar, or listening to Robin talk about woods and guitars.

    Bonjour Jeremy, I'm from Quebec, I'm an exclusive and absolute acoustic guitar player and I want to thank you so much to help this incredible band of artists to be well known. I'm still not a Boucher owner but I work all days to make this dream come true.
    Long live to Boucher guitars and Guitar Hunter!

    I bought my PS-SG-161 back in February of this year and what a fine instrument it is! The flame pattern on the back is stunning and like you said, it's really 3D, amazing pieces of wood. And the sound is beautiful too of course.
    I'd like to meet Robin in person one day and thank him for building such a fine guitar.

    My first guitare bought 30+ years ago is a La Patrie (made by Robin's uncle). Cool that Robin and his cousin had continue the tradition here in Québec under Boucher names.
    Can't wait to try one out !

      no way, Martin are great I have one, but they have the open ness and volume of a Martin but much more high and resonant trebles like Taylor, its a very modern dynamic tone.
