Influenced by the work of Daniel Friederich, Canadian luthier Bruno Boutin has been building guitars in Québec since 1976. We sold several wonderful guitars by Mr. Boutin a number of years ago. We re-established a connection with him in 2014 and his guitars have been selling as soon as we receive them. We are pleased to offer this very special, gently used, cedar double top. With a thin lacquer finish on the soundboard, this guitar has a beautiful rich tone with great sustain, volume and projection. Remarkably clear and beautiful trebles are finely balanced with warm, rich, loud basses - the perfect guitar for the concert stage or the conservatory. This is an exceptional instrument.
