Beautiful collection. I was lucky enough to purchase very early 2008 amber Larrivee RS4 with Lollar pickups. Just as to how great of a guitar the RS4 is, I own several guitars to compare it too. . A Larrivee Baker T, a Gibson Les Paul Standard, a Gibson SG , a Fender American Strat , A Musicman Axis Sport, and a few very nice but more affordable guitars such as Godin, PRS SE, and Epiphone. The two Larrivees are on a whole different level from the others and that’s saying a lot because the others are pretty great. Larrivee makes a super high quality guitar. The RS4 is the best guitar I own hands down. Everything about it screams high quality. The wood, the hardware, the finish work and craftsmanship are top notch. They were pretty pricey brand new but definitely worth it when you looked at what it was. They didn’t cut any corners building these. It’s a shame that they didn’t catch on and were discontinued. I think that if the headstock had said Gibson it would still be in production. People just didn’t want to spend that kind of money on a guitar if it didn’t say Fender, Gibson or PRS on it. It was easily custom shop or PRS level quality. If you can still find one anywhere I’d highly recommend that you grab it.
hi, my friend has a larrivee electric that neither one of us have been able to ID if you would be able to help in any way it would be greatly appreciated. thanks so much if you ever see this!

Love that Root Beer burst by the way. I could never find one. That’s my favorite color RS4 as well.
#1 Larrivee ambassador :)
This takes n+1 to a whole new level!
I always have a special place for Larrivee and their crafts people! With all those Larrivees you could spare an acoustic to a kindly poor musician?
