this hurts because I love the guitar. But on Dr's orders i can work no more than 30 hours/week for the foreseeable future. Forum regulars will recall that I bought this guitar for a very good price from wordlesschorus in February.
Here are the specs:
Specs: (taken from Larrivee website)
Lower Bout: 15.375"
Upper Bout: 11.375"
Waist: 10.5"
Depth: 4.875"
Scale Length: 25.5"
Nut Width: 1 7/8"
Fretboard Radius: 16" to 21" Compound
Frets: Nickel Silver
Gloss UV Finish Body/Satin Finish Neck
The guitar is in the exact same condition as when it came to me. Here are the (minor) condition issues:
There a few small and light superficial finish dings that do not reach the wood on the guitar. There are two minor pick marks by the soundhole (which i could not pick up with the camera) one small finish ding by the bridge and one small ding on the underside of the side of the guitar. Also, i had a little trouble restringing my guitar the first time around so there are a couple light not-very-noticeable nicks near the headstock. All in all, these marks are superficial, do nothing to compromise the structural integrity of the guitar, and are not noticeable to the eye unless you are looking for them.
Here's a link to the original sale thread for pictures, as I haven't had time to take any of my own:

This link is my review after extensive play of the guitar:

My firm price is $1200 + actual shipping (it was $80 when I purchased it), which is exactly what I have into the guitar. I really want this guitar to stay in the family. I can take payment via check, moneyorder or paypal as long as you cover the fees. I prefer to sell to U.S. or Canadian buyer, but am willing to ship internationally if that's what it takes...

Interested in your guitar.Please contact me peter@neum.co.nz
This sure is a jem and I'd love to have it (I believe I mentioned that back in February). The only way is like everyone else---something has to go. I've got to make a few calls first, but I'll probably be putting my 0M05 up for sale. If mine goes and she's (your SD) still around by then, all the better. The SD model almost mirrors my D35S Martin, and although I've never tried one, or even seen one, I bet it sounds and plays great.

Todd,
You're the first one that I was gonna call. I just got home and I'll give you a shout.
Hello fellow Forumites,
Well the deal I though was on fell through so this guitar is still for sale. I'd really like to make a sale soon as I'm now back out on medical disability at 50% of my normal income.
Sorry that I haven't been back to check the thread for a while!

I wish someone would buy this wonderful guitar so I don't have to look at this posting. After thinking about selling the grandchildren I don't yet have, I am trying to figure out how I can seize this 12-fret. C'mon folks, step up to save my sanity!
I'm still trying
Bump for the weekend.
