Notes: When it comes to travel guitars, we've tried them all, and nothing comes even close. The Larrivee Parlor series is a real guitar, with real guitar tone, playability and performance. We taken a pair of them on countless overseas trips, with scarcely a glance as we tuck them in the overhead bin. We had beachside jam sessions, and played them at loud, raucous parties. We've even taken them down any number of river rafting trips, easily secured in dry bags.
A premium version of Larrivee Parlor line, the P-09 Artist Series is graced with all solid construction, including an Indian Rosewood body, X-braced Sitka spruce soundboard, and solid mahogany neck. The traditional parlor body size is patterned after the classic Martin 0 series, and provides sweet, clear tone, with truly astounding volume and projection. The 12 fret neck makes for a wonderfully compact package, and the full-size 1 3/4" fingerboard is ideal for either pick or finger style play.
Upscale touches include the Paua abalone soundhole rosette, and body binding of solid curly maple. Action is smooth and low with a fresh high precision setup over a comfy, gentle C profile neck. Best of all, at a mere 3lb 11oz, you can practically put this little wonder in your back pocket. This lovely example shows striking bearclaw figure in the top, and has been maintained in immaculate, 100% original condition, supplied with its original deluxe plush lined hardshell case.
The ideal companion for the traveler unwilling to sacrifice true guitar performance for unbeatable convenience on the road, or anywhere else. One only: call now.
Setup: This instrument is strung with medium gauge .12 phosphor bronze strings. The guitar will accommodate lighter or heavier strings, according to preference.
