One of Larrivée's Longest-standing Models
Part of Larrivée's Rosewood Artist Series, the LV-09E employs Jean Larrivée's original tonal recipe — the same one he perfected in the 1970s. The LV-09E is meticulously crafted from solid Sitka spruce and East Indian rosewood, yielding a tone that's guaranteed to exceed all expectations, both onstage and in the studio. You'll benefit from a genre-fluid sound that works well in a myriad of applications, courtesy of Jean's legendary X-brace design. The LV-09E's comfortable mahogany neck features an easy-playing ebony fingerboard, complete with a bone nut, compensated bone saddles, and top-of-the-line JCL 18:1 tuners. And when it comes time to hit the stage, the LV-09E's LR Baggs StagePro Element electronics ensure top-shelf plugged-in tone, with onboard volume, EQ, notch filter, and tuner for maximum sonic flexibility. The Larrivée LV-09E boasts high-end looks, thanks to flamed-maple trim, multi-strip purfling, an abalone rosette, a tortoise pickguard, and a head-turning gloss finish
