Larrivee Guitars at Studio Gears

Larrivee has built a devoted following among recording musicians for exactly the qualities that matter most when a microphone is in the room: precise intonation, balanced dynamics, and tonal clarity that translates beautifully to tape and in the box. Studio Gears carries a focused selection of eight instruments — from solid Sitka spruce and mahogany OM bodies built for fingerstyle detail to full-voiced dreadnoughts and even a rare silver oak limited run — spanning roughly $2,200 to $4,700.

Whether you're tracking folk, Americana, singer-songwriter, or jazz sessions, these guitars reward close-mic technique with even response across the frequency range and minimal string-to-string imbalance, keeping your mix work clean. Appointments like bone nuts, ebony fretboards, and set-neck construction contribute to the sustain and note definition that engineers reach for when a guitar needs to hold its own in a dense arrangement.
