Sound & Tone
The aged European spruce top over solid silver oak back and sides yields a warm, woody voice with crystalline trebles that cut cleanly without turning brittle, plus lows that stay full and resonant. Moon spruce scalloped hybrid bracing and the OM body keep response quick and balanced across the range, so intricate fingerstyle passages and open-tuning experiments stay articulate while heavier strumming still projects. With a 1.75-inch nut width, 16-inch radius, and ebony fingerboard, it suits fingerpickers and flatpickers alike in folk, singer-songwriter, pop, and light jazz settings.
Larrivee OM-44 Silver Oak Ice-T Special Limited Run Guitar
The OM-44 Silver Oak Ice-T Special delivers the responsive, balanced playability that defines the OM body shape, with a one-piece mahogany neck that invites effortless fingerstyle technique and smooth chord transitions. This limited-run collaboration represents Larrivee's meticulous craftsmanship applied to a distinctly warm, woody tonal character that performs equally well in folk, singer-songwriter, pop, and light jazz contexts. The silver oak back and sides produce crystalline trebles and rich, resonant lows that reward both delicate fingerpicking and assertive strumming.
Tonal Character & Build
The combination of solid aged European spruce topped wood with solid silver oak back and sides creates a guitar with excellent clarity and articulation—trebles cut through without harshness while the lows remain resonant and full. Moon spruce scalloped hybrid bracing supports responsive sustain and balanced projection across the entire frequency range, making this instrument versatile enough for intricate acoustic arrangements or experimental open tunings.
