Larrivee J-09 Moon Spruce/ Indian Rosewood Acoustic Guitar | New
The Larrivee J-09 Moon Spruce blends understated elegance with the bold, piano-like voice that has made Larrivee's 09 Series a favorite among discerning players. Built in the traditional jumbo body shape, this guitar delivers powerful low end, shimmering highs, and exceptional balance-now elevated with a premium moon spruce top for enhanced responsiveness and tonal clarity.
Moon spruce is harvested during specific lunar phases in the winter months, a traditional European practice believed to yield exceptional stiffness-to-weight ratio and enhanced resonance. The result? A top that responds effortlessly to a light touch while retaining headroom for aggressive strumming. Expect a clear, articulate attack with rich overtones and impressive dynamic range.
Paired with Indian rosewood back and sides, the J-09 offers deep, authoritative bass, sparkling trebles, and a slightly scooped midrange that records beautifully and fills a room with ease. The jumbo body shape enhances projection and sustain, making it equally at home on stage, in the studio, or leading worship.
The 09 Series is known for its clean, sophisticated aesthetic. Flamed maple binding, abalone purfling, and a beautifully detailed rosette frame the natural finish. The ebony fingerboard and bridge provide durability and snap, while Larrivee's symmetrical X-bracing ensures balance and structural integrity across the tonal spectrum.
