Based on the popular -03 Series, the Vintage models also feature solid mahogany back and sides but distinguish themselves with a highly resonant mahogany top rather than the standard spruce, and a stunning best-grade true vintage process all-body sunburst.The satin finish gloriously highlights the quality of the woods and allows the guitar's tone to sing.
Other enhancements include Vintage Tulip style tuning machines, Vintage multi-strip rosette, multi-strip top-bind purling and large fretboard dots.
As with all -03 models the guitar feature a one piece neck and a hand-fit dovetail neck joint. They are all built in Larrivée Vancouver factory and come with a Larrivée archtop hardshell case included.
-03 Vintage will ship in the UK initially with a choice of three body shapes and with an onboard-pickup included - the D-03E Vintage dreadnought, OM-03E Vintage and OOO-03E Vintage. All come equipped with the discrete but great-sounding Shadow NanoFlex pickup.
All models will ship in June 2013, each priced at £1899 RRP inc VAT.
