For sale is my Larrivee Simple 6 OM in natural finish that I purchased in September 2024 and have played only indoors a handful of times. It is as new, better than display, with no marks, blemishes or issues whatsoever. The photos hardly do it justice. Here is a chance to save some money on the RRP. The Simple 6 range is the least adorned Larrivee available, but is built with the same love and high quality timbers of more expensive models. It's a beautiful instrument (folk singer Willie Watson has been playing one of these exclusively for many years now).

This particular guitar is one of the finest examples of build quality I have come across; every join is perfect, the finish is perfect and the wood is understated and beautiful. The inside is super-clean, with no glue or marks and the sound is rich and warm, characteristic of a Larrivee guitar. I feel this guitar will continue to develop over the years, so it is a gamble putting it up for sale. Although mentioned alongside Martin's modern 15 range, from what I have seen (I am a writer for Guitarist magazine UK, so I've come across a few) the Larrivee is far superior, from the hand cut dovetail neck joint onwards. The quality throughout is exceptional and it has been set up spot on by the guys at Guitar Village.

Please let me know if you have any questions. I can post the guitar if necessary, although collection from Bristol (UK) is preferred, or I'm happy to travel and meet the buyer somewhere reasonable. £1150
