Larrivée BT-44 Baritone Acoustic Guitar - Spruce & Mahogany
Manufactured and hand-finished in Oxnard, California, this Larrivée BT-44 Baritone pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with solid mahogany back and sides for a deep, powerful voice that retains excellent clarity and definition. Tuned B–E–A–D–F#–B, it opens up an entirely different tonal range from a standard acoustic guitar, with rich low fundamentals and a remarkably articulate response that makes it especially rewarding for fingerstyle playing, alternate voicings, and accompaniment.
Built around a long 27" scale and 12-fret neck joint, the BT-44 has the tension and resonance needed to keep its lower register focused rather than muddy. Larrivée’s parabolic hybrid bracing, ebony fingerboard and bridge, high-density bone nut and saddle, maple binding, and gloss finish round out the Legacy Series appointments.
I play baritone guitars quite a bit, which is unusual enough in itself, and that was a big part of why I ordered this one for the shop. Many manufacturers treat the baritone as something of a utility instrument; useful for adding a particular texture or low register in the studio, but not necessarily built to stand on its own as a truly great acoustic guitar. The BT-44 is different. This is an actual great guitar first, and a baritone second; beautifully balanced, responsive, and satisfying enough to be your primary instrument rather than something you reach for only when a song calls for it.
Baritone Larrivées are considerably less common than the company’s standard-scale models, and the BT-44 is typically a special-order instrument rather than something routinely encountered in shops.
Includes a hardshell case and the manufacturer’s limited lifetime warranty.
Professionally set up by Daymaker Music before sale for comfortable playability and proper performance

One-year Daymaker Music warranty from the date of purchase
