Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Very Good
A killer combination of Sitka and Mahogany, this unique bracing pattern in combination with a tried and true set of Mahogany back and sides makes this a perfectly versatile dread for fingerstyle, flatpicking, and strumming alike!
SP Luthier Notes: Fret dress and setup
From Larrivee Guitars
The revolutionary new 40 Series features our "Scalloped Parabolic Hybrid" bracing system design.
Based on our tried and true "X-Brace" design, Jean blended a non-symmetrical scalloped lateral cross-bracing pattern with our standard X-Brace. This means maximum strength using the least amount of material. It's a build that allows even further vibration of the soundboard, while still offering a controlled dynamic bass response. Like all Larrivée's, the 40 Series are built in America using only all solid wood and feature brand new upgrades like bone nut and saddle, diamond fingerboard dots, and 18:1 open-back tuners. Jean's revolutionary new bracing design means a robust and unique tone that is sure to appeal to traditional and long-time Larrivée players alike.
