The Larrivee OM 40R is a core model from Larrivee’s Rosewood Legacy Series, using as its basis the 14-fret neck-to-body join OM Body. Offering superior note separation and balance compared to a dreadnought, while maintaining the projection of the 14th fret join, this body is viewed by many as the acoustic guitar sweet spot. The pinched waist and shallower body have the side benefit of increased seated playing comfort.

Sitka Spruce combined with Indian Rosewood is, for some, the ultimate tone wood pairing. Its complex sound is produced by the attack of the Sitka and the overtone-rich resonance of the Rosewood. Larrivee’s "Scalloped Parabolic Hybrid" bracing design brings the best of this already-outstanding combination. A non-symmetrical scalloped lateral cross-bracing pattern has been blended with Larrivee’s tried and true balanced X-Brace system. The result is 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.

Larrivee prides itself on being plugged in to the entire process of producing a finished, hand-made guitar, from log selection on the forest floor to final quality control in their Oxnard, California workshop. Their aim to build not the most guitars, but the best, is evident on the OM-40 R. Hand selection of the woods has ensured that the top, back and sides perform optimally together. Traditional aesthetics, punctuated by intricate rope binding, open-back tuners and diamond inlays to the fretboard, complete the package.

This guitar is from 2016 and has a K&K Pickup installed. It is almost unplayed and in great condition. It comes with the original case and paperwork.
