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 records exceptionally well across folk, singer-songwriter, pop, and light jazz sessions. The silver oak back and sides produce crystalline trebles and rich, resonant lows that capture both delicate fingerpicking textures and assertive strumming with clarity and depth.
Tonal Character & Studio Performance
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, translating beautifully through microphones in a mix. Moon spruce scalloped hybrid bracing supports responsive sustain and balanced projection across the entire frequency range, making this instrument ideal for layering intricate acoustic arrangements, overdubs, or experimental open tunings within production work.
Construction & Session Versatility
Built in the USA with premium materials throughout, this guitar features ebony fingerboard and bridge paired with a 1.75-inch nut width and 16-inch fingerboard radius that accommodate both fingerstyle and flatpicking approaches with equal comfort across tracking sessions. The full Ice-T sunburst finish with gloss coating, rope purfling, and vine headstock inlay reflect the attention to detail that translates to both recorded tone and visual consistency in studio documentation and performance footage.
