Larrivee say
Four years ago we embarked upon a journey …
to create a new electric guitar. The goal was not to create a whole line of guitars – just one… and then to take this one instrument and push it to its limits, to perfect it, if you will. We endeavored to make this new instrument reach its maximum potential through excellence in craftsmanship and superior hardware.
The result is our RS-4.
The core of the guitar is a slim South American Mahogany body, overlaid with the industry’s thickest , Flamed Maple carve top (coming in at 3/4” thick). The single piece South American Mahogany neck is attached with an extra-long mortise & tenon joint. The Indian Rosewood fretboard features a specialty “spoke nut, truss rod” which allows
you to adjust the truss rod with the strings at tension (without a special tool). Two body cutouts add comfort and style to the instrument while reducing weight – the RS-4 weighs in at about 8 lbs. on average.
We’ve selected what we feel is the best available hardware for the guitar, with tone and reliability being our most important considerations. The RS-4 features Larrivee Custom Pickups, Schaller M6 Tuners & Schaller Strap Locks, LUXE Bumblebee paper-in-oil Capacitors, Switchcraft Switch & Jack, CTS Pots, and vintage Shielded push-back cloth wire.
