MY GLORY!!! That is one beautiful guitar!  :niceguitar:

I don't mind the ivoroid binding on my fingerboards but the curly maple on this one is stunning.

Walkerman that is truely a BEAUTIFUL piece of craftsmanship.  :niceguitar:  I remember the pics from when it was being built and was wondering how it was coming along. Who says Larrivee doesn't do Custom work.  :thumbsup

Sorry to resurrect an ancient post, but that is one of the best looking peghead inlays I've seen yet!

What's the story with the two-tone sides? Looks like a combination of hog and rosewood? Could it be?

You can find color variation like that in Brazilion Rosewood. In Madagascar Rosewood as well.

That is one of the nicest 12 strings I have ever seen.

Can't believe I missed it the first time around.

Hi walkerman
Lovely guitar.  :nice guitar:
If you don´t mind my suggestion, why don´t you take some decent  outdoor photos of the guitar? It is such a pity that the pictures you´ve taken don´t make justice of the beauty of the instrument
Also, look at the thread http://www.larriveeforum.com/smf/index.php?topic=20038.0. You´ve got a gorgeous example
By the way, I loved your story about meeting JCL driving back home :bgrin:

Very impressive!

I notice the fretboard binding matches the binding around the body - all maple.  I love that and wish Larrivee would make that standard on their higher end models.

The maple is much nicer!
