Title: Larrivée 00-05 -Mint - Reduced!
Post by: Philphool on July 04, 2006, 10:02:43 AM

Against my better judgement, I've decided to put my 00-05 on the market. I've got this crazy yearning for a mandolin and need some money. (I know; I've lost my mind. :rolleyes:)

It's as close to mint as I can see. No dings or scratches that I've noticed. It sounds nice with a fingerstyle touch. It has a 1 11/16 inch nut. (Yes, I re-measured it to be sure since there has been some discussion about how unusual this is.) Has clear pickguard and original archtop case.
The mahogony back and sides are beautiful. I love the guitar and thought I'd never sell it, but I need the money and, honestly, I play my other guitars more and the 00 just doesn't get its fair share of the time.

Don't buy it if you cant' give it a good home.

I buy this in a minute if it just did not have the 1 11/16 neck width.

Pretty box, would go nice with my 00 19 (rosewood), but I too need a mandolin. Need a reset on my Gibson and want to have at least a decent back up before giving her up.

Okay, I'm gonna reduce the price once before resorting to ebay.

$1000 plus Shipping & insur. (prob $30) for this mint condition 00-05 solid beautiful mahogony, sitka top with 1 11/16" nut and abalone rosette. No longer in production as far as I know.

Thanks for considering,

Hello... newbie here. I tried emailing for some info, I'll try here. I've been trying to find some specs on this guitar (scale length, bout sizes, etc.) Do you have these handy, or maybe a link to a page with them? Is it basically the same dim's as a Martin 00? I'm hoping to find a replacement for my (orig. issue unbound, satin finish) parlor and shooting for a short scale.

Thanks for any info.

Ed

Here you go:

Scale length = 25.5"
Upper bout = 10"
Waist = 8 1/4"
Lower bout = 14 1/8"

Not short scale, but with Newtone 0.011 strings, it feels pretty soft and cuddly to play!
And notice the new low price! :rolleyes: :WNK>

Thanks for considering,
Phil
