Out of all of the acoustic guitar builders who have added solidbody electric guitars to their line in recent years, Jean Larrivee has to be the most experienced. For seven years in the ’80s, Jean switched production largely to solidbody electrics and produced a very respected line that included the bolt-on-neck LS & LT series, as well as a very well received neck-thru RS series that culminated in the RS-4 with carved highly flamed maple tops! Even though the shop had a lot of fun creating sometimes wild new body styles and graphic finishes, these were very serious musical instruments that displayed all of the attention to detail that has distinguished Jean’s work throughout his long career.

MORE →The Nechville Atlas is hybrid banjo with a unique pot and Nechvilles patent pending adjustable neck design. The Walnut block-rim construction and wooden flange give this banjo a earthy appearance and smooth ergonomic feel. The Nechville fraling thumb scoop allows players to double thumb in that sweet spot without losing the top frets common with a typical scoop. The Cocobolo tone ring has a similar mass to a light weight metal tone ring providing similar sustain with a much warmer timbre. This instrument has the full fat sound of a 12″ pot with added clarity providing great depth, resonance and sustain. The Saturn and Stars inlay and hand rubbed oil finish complete this great looking and sounding banjo!
