Boucher SG-51-M Studio Goose OM Hybrid Acoustic Guitar
Master Grade Upgrades, Adirondack clarity and boutique craftsmanship in an heirloom-quality OM
The Boucher SG-51-M Studio Goose OM Hybrid represents the pinnacle of the Studio Goose Series — handbuilt in Quebec using Boucher’s most select tonewoods and master-grade voicing techniques. Designed for discerning guitarists seeking world-class tone and responsiveness, the SG-51-M elevates the standard SG-51 with the Master Grade Pack — a collection of exclusive tonewood and aesthetic enhancements that take an already exceptional instrument into rarefied territory.

Why Choose the SG-51-M Master Grade
While the standard SG-51 already delivers world-class performance, the Master Grade Pack raises it to a level typically reserved for custom-shop instruments.
The upgraded Adirondack top alone provides greater clarity and volume, while the enhanced aesthetic details — from maple binding to the herringbone rosette — make the SG-51-M a true heirloom piece. For players who demand an instrument that performs flawlessly on stage, in the studio, and across a lifetime of music-making, the SG-51-M is worth every step above the base model.
