Title: WTB: Larrivee 00-sized Shortscale Guitar
Post by: charleslee on January 24, 2011, 08:41:09 PM

I want to buy my first ever Larrivee guitar! I'm looking for one that is 00-sized and short scale. To my knowledge I've only seen the 00-03 spruce/mahogany, 00-03V spruce/mahogany, and 00-03R in short scale. But if there is anything else, I'm willing to consider!

Here are some donuts for taking the time to read my first post and my little call for help. :donut :donut2 :donut :donut :donut :donut2 :donut :donut2 :donut2 :coffee

Thanks!

Welcome aboard Charles!

Hate to tell you this, but there is at least a short line (3 or 4 people) waiting to buy one of these (OO-03R's). From what I understand, these are the only OO's with a short scale that Larrivee has made. There is the OO-50's, but they have a regular 25.5" scale.

A couple of us have been on the lookout for a while. There is supposedly going to be another run of them that may be built later this spring/summer (see other recent thread), so maybe you can jump in on that run with the other forum members who missed out on the first run of these. I guess the more noise we make, the faster this custom run might come together.....so start yelling!

Thanks for the donuts.

Jeff

charleslee,
Give Ted at LA Guitar Sales a call. He is the one who ordered the previous runs of short-scale 00's. I spoke to him this weekend and he said he was planning another run this summer.

Btw, I bought one of the 00-03R's and love it. It is now my only guitar.

Thanks for the replies!
@identicalstranger I will go and find that thread now and make noise together with you guys. I wonder if they will take donuts as payment? :donut :donut :donut :donut :donut :nanadance

@zpcm04 I have a feeling a short scale 00-03R guitar might just make me sell all my other acoustics as well!

You could find a P-09 Larrivee and get some idea of the tone and feel of a 00 shortscale. I own a 00 long scale and a P-09 shortscale, so if your in my neighborhood your welcome to come by and test drive a few Larrivees.

I have preferred the 00 size to the parlours, but my own preferences have been changing of late.

If you are still looking, I posted a 00-03R (rosewood) on September 1, 2011. This guitar is in excellent condition.

I believe Charles ordered a 00V-03 shortscale back in January :blush:
