The Larrivée Parlor Guitar has a smaller body and shorter neck than standard acoustic guitars. This means the frets are closer together, making it easier for people with smaller hands to play . Despite its size, this guitar is surprisingly loud and has a beautiful tone. It’s particularly good for Folk, Ragtime and Country Blues. Because of its smaller size, the Larrivée parlor guitar was chosen as the staff guitar on the International Space Station.
