The classic tonewood combination
While Larrivee is a forward-thinking brand, they certainly aren’t above paying tribute to the classics. In the case of the OO-40, Larrivee chose a classic OO-style body and the timeless tonewood combination of spruce and ovangkol. The design marries the precise midrange response of the smaller body shape with the top-end definition of Romanian spruce and the warmth of ovangkol. And since each tonewood on the guitar is FSC-certified, you can be sure that Larrivee made no lasting impact upon the planet when crafting the OO-40.
Scalloped hybrid bracing gets the most out of your guitar
Much like how a racecar’s aerodynamics influence top speed and cornering ability, an acoustic guitar’s performance is defined by how it’s braced. Larrivee equipped the OO-40 with their scalloped parabolic hybrid bracing pattern to ensure that the guitar reaches its true potential. A modified X—brace-style design, Larrivee’s scalloped parabolic hybrid bracing gives the top an exceptional amount of support with less bracing than before. For the player, that means you get superior resonance, sustain, and projection without long-term reliability issues.
Enchanté Larrivee
Founded in 1967 in Canada, Larrivee honed their vision and craft among the Sitka spruce forests of Vancouver. Eventually, the company moved not overseas but to California, where Larrivee still crafts guitars that emphasize fine tonewoods and premium aesthetics at player-friendly prices. Goals like “affordable luxury” and ethically sourced wood are anchored in real-world action like how Larrivee relies on ethically sourced FSC-certified woods. Their passion and appreciation for our forestry’s natural beauty let players like you responsibly add pieces of nature to your life in the form of a guitar.
