Larrivee Baker-T Pro Electric Guitar - Natural Slight Aging Toner

Description: The Incredible Baker-T Goes Pro! The Baker-T Pro is an American-made, vintage-inspired masterpiece designed by company heir and self-described T-style guitar nut Matt Larrivee! Upping the wow factor of the original Baker-T, the Baker-T Pro sports a premium tonewood top and a figured maple neck that add unique looks and extra tonal depths to traditionally spartan T-style builds. A solid ash body, a flame rock maple neck, and a rosewood fingerboard offer snappy T-style performance. Meanwhile, a striking spalted maple top sweetens the treble character and makes strings more responsive. Moreover, these tonewoods are supported with dozens of subtle upgrades, including single-coil pickups voiced with Alnico V and Alnico VI magnets and coils that are hand-wound by Matt Larrivee himself. Other notable touches include ergonomic body contours, tone-boosting stainless steel screw inserts, Gotoh tuners with carbon fiber C-A-R-D mounts, and compensated brass saddles.

While subtle, these differences make a big tonal difference when it’s time to plug in and turn up! If you’re chasing down a T-style electric that puts a deluxe spin on twang, then the Baker-T Pro from Sweetwater absolutely deserves your consideration!Custom T-style pickups wound by hand The Baker-T Pro’s single-coil pickups are boutique through and through. Each pickup is treated to hand-wound coils and inspection approval from Matt Larrivee. In the bridge position, you’ll find a mighty potted Alnico V single-coil with hot tone and great response — ideal for twangy leads and beefy rhythm work. The neck position features a rare selection: a potted Alnico VI pickup. The Alnico VI recipe is close to Alnico V, but with boosted nickel content in the magnet that pulls in the character of Alnico II. The result is a powerful neck pickup that enhances modern materials with a flavorful hint of vintage T-style guitars and their Alnico II pickups from the ’50s. To tie it all together, Larrivee adds premium support electronics: top-notch potentiometers from Bourns Pro Audio; vintage paper-in-oil capacitors (prized for their tendency to better with age); and traditional volume, tone, and 3-way selector controls for nailing a full range of T-style sounds.Obsessive hardware and design The original T-style guitar got a lot of things right, but there’s always room for improvement! The Baker-T Pro subtly enhances each aspect of the original design for significant improvements in tone, sustain, stability, and playability. Onboard, you’ll find the typical hardware you’d expect from a boutique American-made guitar, including a bone nut, closed-back tuners, and compensated brass saddles; however, things get more interesting when you add in the Baker-T’s stainless steel screw inserts. Compared to typical hardware-mounting methods (drilling straight into wood, glue, etc.), these stainless steel inserts form a tighter bond between the hardware and the guitar. The result is a noticeable bump in sustain and response as well as more reliable performance over the years. The only hardware that doesn’t mount to these inserts are the vintage-style Gotoh tuning machines; instead, these tuners feature Gotoh C-A-R-D carbon fiber mounts that improve the action of your tuning machines while also keeping strings centered and aligned, even if a tuning peg gets bent out of shape from a gnarly fall or bump onstage. What’s more, look closely at the front and back of a Baker-T Pro body, and you’ll notice contoured forearm and belly curves. Whether you pick up the Baker-T Pro for two minutes or two hours, these curves streamline the typical slab-style T-body for a luxurious playing experience worthy of the Larrivee name.Enchanté Larrivee Founded in 1967 in Canada, Larrivee honed its vision and craft among the Sitka spruce forests of Vancouver. Eventually, the company moved not overseas but to California, where Larrivee still crafts guitars that emphasize fine tonewoods and premium aesthetics at player-friendly prices. Goals like “affordable luxury” and ethically sourced wood are anchored in real-world action, like how Larrivee relies on ethically sourced FSC woods. The company’s passion and appreciation for our forestry’s natural beauty let players like you responsibly add pieces of nature to your life in the form of a guitar.Larrivee Baker-T Pro Electric Guitar Features: Traditional 1-piece ash body for a classic blend of rich resonance and strong sustain Stunning spalted maple top adds tonal nuance and unique personality Forearm and belly contour carves add extra comfort compared to the original T-style shape Flame rock maple neck with comfortable “Slim C” profile and hand-rubbed satin finish Smooth rosewood fingerboard with 21 frets, MOP dot inlays, and a 9.5–14-inch radius Custom tone-boosting hardware, including a Larrivee stainless steel bridge, bone nut, and compensated brass saddles Hand-wound potted alnico pickups paired with premium pots and capacitors yield a familiar but boutique take on single-coil T-tone All screws (except tuner mounts) attach to stainless steel inserts, not directly into wood — yielding a tighter bond between hardware and wood for more durability, sustain, and response Vintage-style Gotoh SDS-510 tuners with C-A-R-D mounts made from carbon fiber composite resin (improves tuner action, sustain, and string alignment) Designed by Matt Larrivee and built in the USA SpecificationDetail Number of Strings 6 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Type Solidbody Body Shape Baker-T Pro Body Material Swamp Ash Top Material Spalted Maple Color Slight Aged Toner Body Finish Acrylic Neck Material Flamed Rock Maple Neck Shape Slim C Neck Joint Bolt-on Radius Compound 9.5"-14" Fingerboard Material Rosewood Fingerboard Inlay Genuine Mother of Pearl Dots Number of Frets 21, Medium, Nickel-Silver Scale Length 25.5" Nut Width 1.6875" Nut Material High Density Bone Bridge/Tailpiece Larrivee w/Compensated Brass Saddles Tuners Gotoh SDS-510 Neck Pickup Larrivee Custom Alnico 6 potted Single-coil Bridge Pickup Larrivee Yarned Wrapped Alnico 5 potted Single-coil Controls 1 x volume, 1 x tone Switching 3-way toggle pickup switch Strings D'Addario XL110, .010-.046 Case/Gig Bag Hardshell Case RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
