BOUCHER SM-PN-72 SIGNATURE SERIES PATRICK NORMAN AMERICAN CHERRY

The very first artist to visit our workshop and buy one of our guitars was Patrick Norman. During his visit in 2005, Patrick fell for a dreadnought guitar, with cherry wood back and sides that he bought on the spot. In the following months, Patrick would play the guitar at each concert and acted as a proud ambassador for the brand.

On September 10, 2016, to celebrate his idol’s 60th birthday, Robin offered Patrick an improved version of that guitar. The first Signature Patrick Norman guitar was launched to the artist’s and his numerous fans’ great delight.
