Boucher 000 12 Fret-to-Body

Boucher Guitars recently added a new shape to its collection of hand-made acoustic guitars – the 000 12 Fret-To-Body (12FTB).

First shown at the 2012 NAMM show and now available through authorized Boucher dealers, this new model features a neck which meets the body at the 12th fret instead of the 14th. The 000 12FTB’s body is slightly larger than that of a traditional 000. According to the company, the lower frequencies are enhanced as a result, making it suited for Paul Simon and Jethro Tull-inspired fingerpicking styles.

Its classical-style slotted headstock evokes a 1940s/50s aesthetic, and the neck’s 1 13/16” nut width and it has a ‘V’ profile.

Boucher offers the 000 12FTB shape in three versions:

STU-IN-000–12FTB (MSRP: $3,899) Studio Series, with Signature Grade Adirondack Red Spruce top and Indian Rosewood back & sides
AVT-IN-000–12FTB (MSRP: $4,999)  AVT Series, with Master Grade Adirondack Red Spruce top and Indian Rosewood back & sides
AVT-BN-000–12FTB (MSRP: $9,999)  AVT Series, with Master Grade Adirondack Red Spruce top and Brazilian Rosewood back & sides
