Larrivee OM-03 Recording Series Guitar Mahogany

Larrivee prides itself on being plugged in to the entire process of producing a finished, hand-made guitar, from log selection on the forest floor to final quality control in their Oxnard, California workshop. Their aim to build not the most guitars, but the best, is evident on the OM03. Hand selection of the woods has ensured that the top, back and sides operate optimally from a tonal perspective; the guitar has a very balanced sound, characteristic of the classic Sitka Spruce and Mahogany tonewood combination.

The OM-03 features ebony headplate, fretboard and bridge, with a bone nut and saddle. Combined, these components maximise the guitar’s resonance transfer from strings to body, as does the company’s signature handfit dovetail neck joint. Multi-strip purfling adorns the top, while the whole body – including the fretboard – is bound in maple. The pickguard is finished in Larrivee’s signature tortoiseshell, while the bridge shape is Larrivee’s standard. Simplicity is also the key with the fretboard – punctuated by white dot fret markers – and headplate – a simple inlaid Larrivee logo with no binding.

The 03 started with the desire to put high-end guitars into the hands of all players.
