The Northern Heat Report - Boucher Guitars

Our special guest this week is Robin Boucher from Guitares Boucher. He stopped by to talk about thermally modified wood in the music industry. It was great to get some insight from a leading Canadian Luthier. Listen to the video to hear what he had to say.
We would also like to gives a big thanks to Josh Parlee of Creo Visuals for shooting and editing this week’s edition of the Northern Heat Report for us.

Boucher guitars are the finest

[@thebendu33]

This should have been longer. Could have been so intetesting

[@thermalwoodcanada]

We agree. This interview wasn't even supposed to happen, it was a last minute, spontaneous decision.. Hopefully we can do another interview with him in the future and really have a longer more in depth conversation.
thanks for watching!!

@@thermalwoodcanada could be intetesting also for you guys to have a chat with Claude Boucher, his cousin, who founded Boucher Guitars

So we’re talking torafide necks (sp)??

[@thermalwoodcanada]

Boucher guitars uses mainly torrefied spuce tops. But in general we also torrefie necks, fret boards, backs and sides and bodies. Basically any wood on a guitar can be torrefied.

[@sweetwilliam49]

@@thermalwoodcanada Very interesting. Torrefied wood should help any instrument that uses resonating woods. Wonder if they have made any violins out of this wood? Looks like they would sell torefied wood guitar kits

Surprising that you don't know how to put a guitar back in the case. Otherwise, nice short interview.
