Larrivee Baker-T Classic Surf Green
Larrivee Baker-T Classic
Note: This model has a cosmetic blemish on the back side BELLY CARVE. The belly carve is NOT smooth and has slight wave to it.
The all-new Baker-T Classic 2023 is Larrivee Guitars' latest precision-built American-made T-Style electric guitar. This Baker-T has fantastic new features, such as the much sought-after pickup design by Matthew Larrive, custom polished stainless steel hardware, and exclusive vintage electronics.
The body is crafted from single-piece ultra-light American Swamp Ash and weighs in on average at a comfortable 6-7 pounds. The Baker-T Classic comes with a quartersawn Indian Rosewood fretboard on a hard maple neck for that warm, spacious tone you find on the Baker-T Pro. The neck is fitted to the body using only premium stainless steel machine screws and precision threaded inserts. And when it comes to the bridge, this guitar offers a new exclusive double-cut from thick polished stainless steel, no plating, and custom large-diameter marine brass barrel saddles.
Most importantly, the newly designed in-house made pickups provide superior balance and are perfectly matched. The bridge pickup features AlNiCo 3 wide-diameter magnets that have been custom mirrored for a cool 3D effect. The neck pickup features custom-made wide-diameter AlNiCo 6 Magnets. These provide a sweet, complete, balanced tone in the neck position. The neck pickup is covered with a genuine nickel-silver cover - sorry, no subpar coated brass here! Each pickup is wound with 43 gauge plain enamel wire and spun on a 60-year-old vintage Leesona pickup winder. How cool is that? Both pickups are lightly potted in a mix of Parrafin and Beewax.
Special touches include using Matthew's private collection of vintage paper-in-oil capacitors for the linear tone pot. Headstocks are painted to match the body and fitted with high-end Gotoh SDS-510 tuners for ultra-smooth precision. And the multi-layer CNC-made pickguard and control are secured with brass inserts and machine screws!
