Larrivée L-09 Baritone - Sound of Silence / Eleanor Rigby Cover

[JamesN]

I've had my L-09 Silver Oak Baritone for a little over a year now. I believe it was the first L body Baritone that Larrivée produced. I'm not sure if they've made any since.

The original braggin' thread is here.

Here's a sample of how it sounds. I'm no recording engineer, so there's some annoying background noise present....sorry.

Bravo James.
Love the baritone. I had a BT-60 but sold it. Thought I'd get another one but then they were unavailable. Didn't know there was an L-09 baritone.
Very nice playing on these tunes.
So glad you posted them here.

Ooh, when you hit some of those bass notes at around, 0:20, that's when I got the goosebumps first time while listening....

I did an improved take of this with fresh strings and somewhat less background noise. There is absolutely no sweetening applied -- what you hear is the pure sound of the Baritone. Thanks for listening!

Both links didn't work for me.

[JamesN]

Fixed. Thanks for the heads up.

Gorgeous-sounding guitar and well-played.  The recording sounds very natural.  I really enjoyed it.  Thanks

Very nice job!  What tuning do you use?  I bought an electric baritone from a guy once, who did not know what he was doing, and could never get it to intonate properly above the first fret so I sent the neck back to him and put a standard 25.5 Carvin neck on the body with phenomenal results.  Never went back to a baritone since...

Good stuff!  Nice playing and a great sound.  Thanks for sharing.  I thought your guitar was a thing of real beauty when you first posted the shots last February.  Look forward to hearing more of it.

[JamesN]

Thanks to all for the kind words.

@georbro3 I use standard tuning dropped a fourth (B E A D F♯ B)
