Summary

Larrivee Guitars makes incredible guitars that fly under the radar way too often. In this episode, you'll see 5 Larrivee guitars that you must hear. From the classic Larrivee 000-50 Traditional to the robust SD-40, you're going to fall in love with at least one of these guitars! @LarriveeMedia has been making high-quality guitars for decades. Hailing from Canada, Larrivee was founded by master luthier Jean Larrivee in 1967. The level of craftsmanship and quality is absolutely superb. Each of the Larrivee guitars on this list offers a different price point and different style. I'm hoping you'll find something that works for your playing needs. Additionally, none of the guitars on this list are subpar — really, truly! I especially recommend watching to the end of the Larrivee segment so that you can hear about the first solid-wood guitar I bought. That guitar, which I wish I had never sold, was a true swiss army knife of a guitar. Balanced, clear, and able to handle a variety of styles, that Larrivee was one of the best guitars I've ever owned. Also featured on this episode...- Easy Eye Sound - Son House- Tony Rice- Stern Pinball
