I was absolutely blown away right when I picked up this guitar! It plays really fast and has a creamy, buttery feeling to it. I found it to be very comfortable for both hands and was fantastic running clean and heavy gain. Balance and clarity in spades - all your fancy chords voicings will sound fantastic.
MVP wiring stands for “Maximum Versatility and Potential”. On a standard “S” style guitar the 5 way switch allows for 5 distinct tones (Neck, Neck-Middle, Middle, Middle-bridge, Bridge). Many players do not use the “middle only” position which lead us to eliminate it and add a Neck-Bridge position. The five positions on the Lancaster are: Neck, Neck-Middle, Neck-Bridge, Middle-bridge, Bridge. The MVP wiring allows you to get the standard strat style tones, but also that sweet Tele middle position tone.
Elegant and dead simple, the reinterpreted iconic designs have been masterfully built. Using lightweight Swamp Ash, each body meets specific weight standards before initial contouring begins. Pair that with a solid one-piece, hand-selected Eastern Maple neck and you have the bones for success. All Larrivée pickups are precision wound and hand assembled in house by specialized staff.Prized by any savvy aficionado, our electrics are wired with original antique paper-in-oil caps located by Mattew Larrivée out of the former Soviet Union. Sonically, these caps provide subtle warm tones that are true to their period.
Our electrics bridge the finest of everything Larrivée has to offer, unleashing a spectacular range of tone and a feel that will leave you marveled.
