Part of the Recording Series, the Larrivee OM 03R draws from the classic Orchestra Model design introduced in the early 1930s to aid the great shift to guitar by banjo players.

The Larrivee OM 03R is built using traditional materials including a Sitka Spruce top with Herringbone purfling and rosette, Indian Rosewood for the back sides and head plate, Mahogany for the body blocks and neck, with Ebony for the bridge and bound fingerboard. The body binding is Maple while, in this period, the fingerboard binding is grained ivoroid. The finish is natural satin.

This Larrivee OM 03R serial number dates to January 30 2008 and was built at Larrivee’s shop in Vancouver. It’s in overall very good condition, with minimal fret wear and light finish wear – the most noticeable is a gloss section on the top where the player’s fingers rested. The OM body tends to produce a very full, evenly balanced tone with good representation throughout the frequency range.

The original Larrivee hard shell case is included.
