Proud Larrivee guitar owner here. It's good to Matt and Jean talking about the Larrivee tradition and their wonderful guitars. Partnering with Sweetwater will definitely get their name out there more.

I own three Larrivees and will be looking to get one through Sweetwater. I have a custom OM-09 with flame/figured walnut and moonspruce top, and a custom OM-40 with rosewood and moonspruce top. I encourage anyone interested in buying a new acoustic to dive into videos on youtube on different woods. Tom Sands has probably 15-20 different videos on woods that are fun to nerd out on.

Keep in mind if you buy one of these that a well made guitar such as this needs breaking in and it takes a while to open up. After that first year it will only get better as it matures. A Stradivarius is an amazing violin because of the 300 years of playing put into it... same goes for guitars.

I love my Larrrive'e L-03-12R. It is a better guitar than I am a player. It was so nice to hear the family's love of wood as well as their craft. Although I must warn you that it is not immune to cracks here in the dry desert southwest (take care of it with a good humidifier). One thing that no one mentioned in this interview is that the soft satin finish not only looks good in a very subtle way, it smells wonderful! It has been a joy to play for over a dozen years. I'm glad that Sweetwater carries them so that others can find and enjoy these wonderful instruments.

i have a 1966 gibson J45 i bought around 1975, cherry sunburst faded to what resembles a toasty J50 look, i've had lots of compliments about the sound and for forty years it's been the yardstick i measure other guitars by. i like to joke thought that the inside looks like a glue bomb went off, i don't know why but gibson don't seem to be able to make a flat top with an actual flat top. i also have a larrivee OMO3 zebrano - zebra wood, and although it's not the best sounding guitar in my collection (it's still good), it really is the best made, it's a rolls royce in comparison to the gibson, and the neck is so smooth it feels almost erotic, and it has the slightest of dents caused by a capo that feels like the grand canyon it's that smooth. in contrast though i have a martin OOOX1 that i paid £350 for, with case, that blows my mind every time i put new strings on, by far the best guitar i ever owned or played, and i've had more than 50 in the last ten years, and it's spruce top, but HPL back and sides, basically worktop formica, so i wonder if wood is the ultimate for guitars....

I've had my D-02 since I bought it new in 2000...it is a plain jane no frills sitka spuce top that rivals any similar built Martin or Taylor in sound and playability.

I also have a D-02 I believe from 2000... it eats Taylors alive. That being said I'm moving more toward OM models now.

This is great! There are quite a few amazing Canadian made guitars. I love my Norman acoustics. I also have a great Simon and Patrick small body acoustic and it records better than anything I've ever tried. You should try to get eh entire Godin line in. You won't be disappointed.

Not really "quite a few" when its just one company and their 4 diffusion lines... you said it yourself. Godins are great but it seems they're focusing on quantity over quality. Larriveé is the opposite and you can tell in the quality of the craftsmanship.

I always wandered why it’s almost impossible to find cypress in electric guitars. Is it too hard as a wood or there’s something else? Any idea?

If it is the same wood as Stradivari then it can only be the best spruce ever in whole Europe which is the Val Di Fiemme Spruce which is only Italian by definition. Too far from Austria and way off Bavarian region. To be precise Stradivari travelled from Cremona to the Trentino region and the wood he chose for back sides and tops of violins were the Red Spruces from the Paneveggio forest. It is true that the coldest eras produced the most compact tree growth, spruce from 1600-1700 therefore was simply unbeatable because Europe suffered from extreme cold. I’ve been playing your guitars for 20 or so years and they’re incredible, regardless of the spruce you use 😊
