Larrivée Baker-T Classic Aztec Gold Metallic
Larrivée Baker-T Classic Aztec Gold Metallic
Larrivée have been hand-making high-end instruments for over 50 years, and their Baker-T Classic fully embodies the brands ethos of making high quality instruments, with only the highest quality components and techniques.
The Baker-T Classic features a single piece, lightweight Swamp Ash body, rock maple neck, Indian rosewood neck, and Larrivée custom voiced pickups. Each key component comes together harmoniously, resulting in an incredibly responsive and dynamic instrument.
Hardware is made of stainless steel for maximum durability, and the slim-C shape neck features a hand-rubbed satin finish for maximum comfort and playability.
Unplugged, the Baker-T Classic is loud and present, in stark contrast to its solid-body construction. Once plugged in, the Baker-T Classic comes alive with a piano-like clarity, whilst still retaining the tonal hallmarks of a T-style guitar. Effectively merging an old-school design with modern hardware and design concepts, the Baker-T Classic is exceptionally crafted with an emphasis on reliability and tone.
