This listing is for a beautiful Limited Edition
Larrivee Orchestra Model. The guitar in an OM-40 with a European Spruce top and
Shedua, also called Ovangkol back and sides. Ovangkol has been described as
sonically falling somewhere between Rosewood and Koa, and this beauty sounds
great.
With its understated
satin finish and modest adornments, the Larrivée OM-40 doesn’t make a strong
first impression. But strum an open E chord, and you’re immediately struck by
its uncommonly good sound—so lively and responsive, with impressive sustain and
projection.
This guitar also features
a Romanian Spruce top which provides great note separation and clarity, and a
headstock inlay used last in the mid-90s called Leaf and Flower
