Larrivée L-03-12 12-String Acoustic (Made in Canada) + Original Hardshell Case — Excellent
That big, chiming 12-string shimmer—with the kind of balance and build quality that makes you want to keep playing “just one more song.”
This Jean Larrivée L-03-12 is a Canadian-made, all-solid 12-string built around Larrivée’s comfortable L-body shape for a clear, even voice (strong fundamentals, rich overtones, and great separation when you strum hard or pick lightly). It’s a fantastic choice for layering in the studio, singer-songwriter rhythm work, or anyone chasing that classic 12-string jangle without the boxy feel of a big dread.
