Malibu Music is proud to be an authorize Larrivee Destination Dealer! Made only 30 minutes from our shop, these guitars are hand crated in Oxnard California and carry Jean Larrivee’s legacy. All Larrivées are built from the finest materials available across their entire lineup. Their combination of world-class craftsmanship and all solid wood construction results in a peerless instrument of legendary tone and quality.
The revolutionary new 40 Series features our "Scalloped Parabolic Hybrid" bracing system design.
Based on our tried and true "X-Brace" design, Jean blended a non-symmetrical scalloped lateral cross-bracing pattern with our standard X-Brace. 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. Like all Larrivée's, the 40 Series are built in America using only all solid wood and feature brand new upgrades like bone nut and saddle, diamond fingerboard dots, and 18:1 open-back tuners. Jean's revolutionary new bracing design means a robust and unique tone that is sure to appeal to traditional and long-time Larrivée players alike.
