The soundboard will resonate to the tone of Austrian Spruce (Moonwood) with matching bracing. A combination for the purists alike. To complete this limited P-09, our traditional Vine inlay will adorn the headstock. This P-09 Black Limba edition will be limited to 15 builds at $2603 MSRP each, all numbered sequentially and signed by Jean Larrivée. Completion date is set for mid January.
