As part of Larrivée’s 40 Series the 44R features a ‘custom order’ high gloss finish (40 series are in satin). Built in America and using only all-solid wood, as here with this 000 (Auditorium) size guitar we have a Sitka Spruce top, Indian Rosewood back & sides and Larrivée’s revolutionary “Scalloped Parabolic Hybrid” bracing design. New feature include bone nut and saddle, diamond fingerboard dots, and 18:1 open-back tuners. Larrivée’s revolutionary “Scalloped Parabolic Hybrid” bracing design.
Scalloped Parabolic Hybrid: They have blended a non-symmetrical scalloped lateral cross-bracing pattern with our tried and true balanced X-Brace system. This means maximum strength using the least amount of material. It’s a build that allows even further vibration of the soundboard, while still offering a controlled dynamic bass response.
