Larrivee

Jean Larrivee who started Larrivee Guitars has been the brain behind the impressive line of acoustic guitars. Jean entered the guitar making business 4 decades ago. From making classic guitars, he switched to making steel strings. When the acoustic guitar market started looking up once more, Jean again turned his full attention to his ruling passion.

A distinguishing mark of Larrivee acoustic guitars are their decorative fretboards and headstock inlays. The uncompromising stand on the tonal quality of guitars begins from their quest for the right choice of wood. Some types of wood used in making Larrivee guitars are sourced from Spruce and Maple trees.

The Larrivee acoustic guitar line is made up of the 03 Recording Series, the 05 Mahogany Select Series, the 09 Rosewood Artist Series, 10 Rosewood Deluxe Series, 11 - Fingerstyle Series, 50 Mahogany Traditional Series, 60 Rosewood Traditional Series and 30 Series Classical Guitars.

The Larrivee online forum, contrary to what the name might seem to suggest, is not owned or operated by Jean Larrivee Guitars Inc. The forum like any other has speakers who must first register in order to participate, or to be able to post their articles. The forum has many platforms which in a sense try to cover the waterfront. The platforms where opinions might be voiced through articles cover discussing Larrivee guitars, other guitar makers, technicalities and artists to name a few. The forum can also be used for putting guitars on the market.
