"This guitar was superb - and at the price it is also fantastic value for money for a world-class instrument".
iGuitar, the No. 1 online digital magazine for guitarists, features the limited edition Larrivée OOO-03 Walnut in the latest issue.
Previously only available in the Larrivée Traditional Series, the Larrivée OOO model makes its debut in the -03 Recording Series with two limited edition guitars. Manufactured in Larrivée’s Vancouver plant, the OOO-03 Limiteds are available with either solid rosewood (OOO-03R LTD) or solid walnut (OOO-03W LTD) back and sides.
"At this level, there really is a marked difference in the touch, response, sound and quality compared to what we usually think of as a good acoustic. This Larrivée OOO has it all in spades - it's a true player's guitar".
"...its primary purpose , as the name of the series it sits in suggests, is to be an acoustic instrument - a recording guitar - and this particular sample really delivered on that score, sounding so sweet that even with the most average of microphones, you couldn't fail to get a superb recorded tone...The lows are fat but crisp, the mids are sweet and even, and the highs are full of life and don't just die on you as they do with many lesser acoustics".
"...it was an inspiring instrument to spend time with. If you are remotely creative, then the simplest of ideas take on a life of their own, and make you pursue the complete song".
"Having spent time with this, and other Larrivée guitars, I can say that in my opinion it's up there with the best you can get".
The full review can be found in Issue 8 of iGuitar magazine online now (link below). The Larrivée OOO-03W LTD is available now at £1699 RRP inc vat.
