Here is a special Larrivee, with an Austrian
Moon Spruce top, Bhilwara Rosewood back and sides, and includes LR Baggs
Element Active VTC electronics. At a NAMM show a couple of years ago, Larrivee
had a special on 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. We've sold a D-03 and OM-03,
this is the first L-03 to arrive.
Built
to the exact standards you would find on Larrivee’s much higher series, the 03
is built in America using all solid wood and features our hand-fit dovetail
neck joint for superior fit and sustain. This series truly stands out as an
industry leader for price and quality. Maple bound trim, herringbone purfling,
rosette and satin finish are standard features on 03 Series.
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.
