On July 3rd, we had the pleasure of welcoming Larry Schara (National Sales Manager) and John Larrivée Jr. from Larrivée Guitars to our store. It was a great opportunity to connect, explore new ideas, and deepen our understanding of the brand and their instruments.
Every time a Larrivée representative visits, we walk away with tons of valuable insight that helps us better inform our customers, from construction techniques to the philosophy behind their builds.
Fun fact: During our conversation, we learned that Larrivée was the first guitar company to send an acoustic guitar into space. That’s right, in 2013, NASA astronaut Chris Hadfield brought a Larrivée Parlor guitar aboard the International Space Station. It was part of a collaboration with the Canadian Space Agency, and the instrument was used to bring a little music to space, including Hadfield’s famous cover of Space Oddity.
We’re proud to carry a handpicked selection of Larrivée guitars, known for their balanced tone, detailed craftsmanship, and made-in-USA quality.
