The revolutionary new 40 Series features our innovative "Scalloped Parabolic Hybrid" bracing system design. Based on our "X-Brace" design, Jean has blended it with a non-symmetrical scalloped lateral cross-bracing pattern. This means maximum strength using the least amount of material. It's a build that allows even further vibration of the soundboard, while still offering a controlled bass response. Some call it the low end "growl". The 40 Series are built in America using all solid wood and feature detailed upgrades like bone bridge pins, bone nut and saddle, diamond fingerboard dots and Grover 18:1 open back tuners. Jean's exciting new design means a fresh new sound that is sure to appeal to traditional and long-time Larrivée players alike. Available in Dreadnought, OM, 000, 00, and 0 body styles. Mahogany and Rosewood are standard. Custom exotic woods are available upon request. Premier Guitar Magazine review.
