If I wasn't paying off my current CD, I'd be all over this.

                                 Beautiful guitar, not my cuppa though. A bit too much bling for me.

                         This one will be a good litmus test for the resale value of high end Larrivees right now.

They did a great job on the 30th anniversary edition! I usually don't like bling but I would love to own that guitar.

Hey Danny,

I wish that you had a chance to play mine when you were in town.


So do I.

I bought one of these new when they first came out.  I don't know if it was the strings or my ears, but I couldn't get it to sound very special.  Ended up selling it on consignment with Elderly Instruments (it might be in the hands of a Forum member as we speak.)
It sure was a looker though.  The grain on the Brazilian rosewood and the headstock inlay were to die for...

It was our very own Andrew Joyce......which is a good thing, because he certainly doesn't have enough Larrivees..... :humour:

OMG I almost bid on that guitar myself! I have a 30th anniversary Taylor 514CE that I love and a Marshall 30th anniversary amp that I love, so I was practically preordained to bid on that guitar. Though it was incredibly difficult I managed to talk myself out of it. I'm so glad it went to a member here. That is truly one of the nicest Larrivees I've seen in recent years. Congratulations!!!! :nice guitar: :thumb :thumb :thumbsup
