Here is a devilishly cool Larrivee OM from the popular 04 series. With a forward thinking approach to using alternative tone woods this example features a very cool set of Bloodwood. This tropical hardwood from South America is also referred to as Satine and features a brownish red color. This particular example is more of a striped Bloodwood with distinct grain lines. Tonally it is well balanced with a focused note fundamental, great note separation and a quick response to a light touch with plenty of volume. Paired with a wonderful set of Canadian Sitka spruce this super comfortable OM body is a wonderful sounding guitar for light strumming and fingerstyle playing!
“Originally introduced between 2000 and 2004. The popular 04 series style of guitar has gained steam once again with it’s stylish gloss finished top and satin finished back, sides, and neck.
The Larrivee 04 performer series is a hybrid between 03 recording series models and our higher end models. Such distinctions between the two can be made with the difference of materials used. The 04 performer series guitars recieve true bone nut, saddle, and bridge pins. As well deluxe styled JCL tuners, and real mother of pearl logo.”
Jean Larrivee began building guitars in 1968 as a one-man workshop in Toronto. Over the years his commitment to producing the finest instruments has remained constant. Whether flying to Europe to personally select the next shipment of rosewood, walking a log boom off the coast of British Columbia looking for the perfect spruce log, or applying his woodworking skills on the production floor, Jean Larrivee has always gone the extra mile to ensure his guitars are the very best. The entire Larrivee family, including Wendy, Matthew and John Jr. are heavily involved in a very “hands on” daily basis in the production of these high quality professional grade acoustic instruments.
