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 Northern Lights Music
Northern Lights Music is a family-owned independent in Littleton, New Hampshire, operating since 1978 from a Main Street storefront in the heart of the White Mountains. The shop's boutique acoustic floor runs unusually deep for a town its size — Bourgeois is the standout, alongside Santa Cruz, Collings, Lowden, and Huss & Dalton, with rotating inventory from Froggy Bottom, Goodall, Preston Thompson, Greven, Larrivée, and McPherson. New and used sit side by side, and the used catalog regularly turns up vintage examples of the same builders. The shop's geographic position — roughly three hours north of Boston and four from Montreal — makes it a destination dealer for upper New England and southern Quebec rather than a walk-by retailer.
