Larrivee and Lacewood – Larrivee P-09 Lacewood Parlor Guitar

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

Not since Stevie Nicks and Don Henley came together for Leather and Lace, has their been such a pair…okay depending on your tastes that may be a stretch but for those that are rolling your eyes, search Youtube for Dave Grohl and Will Ferrell’s version, better?

Larrivee has brought together Spruce and a Master Grade Lacewood to present to you the Larrivee P-09 Lacewood Parlor Guitar.

The Lacewood used for the Larrivee P-09 Lacewood Parlor Guitar is a true multi-density wood. The outer shell is similar in density to Koa or Walnut, and the interior portions resemble Alder. It has been said the dual densities will combine different tones, while filtering others out. From a tonal standpoint, Lacewood is a very dense wood with loud sustaining tap tones. This translates into a guitar with excellent bass/midrange/treble balance, nice volume and great projection. The midrange exhibits a very vocal character– soothingly aural! The voice of this instrument will capture your Heart and keep you coming back for more. And the looks, well just take a look and see for yourself.
