Here
is a special Larrivee, with with an Austrian Moon Spruce top and Bhilwara
Rosewood back and sides and includes LR Baggs Element Active VTC electronics. At
the 2019 NAMM show Larrivee had a special on D-03 and OM-03 Bhilwara guitars. Response
was tremendous based solely on the rich tones these guitars produced. The Bhilwara back
& sides and Moon Spruce top coupled with Larrivee's Moon Spruce
bracing created a guitar with some of the richest tones ever. They sold
out so quickly that Larrivee decided to add them to their lineup. The first of
these models are just starting to arrive.
Bhilwara is a Rosewood from India that is sonically comparable to
Monkey Pod. This
guitar sounds great, like a nice blend between Indian Rosewood and Mahogany.
The Legacy Series is a revolutionary series of guitars from Larrivee.
This series is born from years of research and testing features Jean Larrivee’s
first new bracing pattern in over 46 years. The “Scalloped Parabolic Hybrid”
bracing system perfectly merges the strength, tonal balance, and clarity of
Larrivee bracing, with the Bass response, depth, and volume you’d expect from a
vintage dreadnaught.
