I never go to guitar center but I was looking for a new acoustic and I actually stumbled across an amazing deal for a Larrivee D-03E. I played almost every guitar in the place and found that the tone was perfect - not too bright and not too mellow, definitely has a classical touch to it. I also loved the feeling of the fretboard. I took it home and played for a while and realized the previous owner hadn't even really bothered to set it up. This week I got it properly set up and the action lowered and it is my favorite acoustic I have ever played hands down. The feel of it and the tone are incredible. I know the D-03 is supposed to be less of a fingerpicking guitar (???) but I love it for that purpose.
Anyways, thanks so much. I had no idea who larrivee was but now I'm sold.
Cheers,
Anders

Hello Anders. Thanks be to JCL and Family, and glad you found out what you were missing :smile: Needless to say, there are others. :smile:
Have a donut. :donut or two :donut2
Congrats! Great instruments it are!
Guitars for fingerpicking usually have a slightly wider neck, but who cares... it's just about preferences. Some people might prefer a wider neck because they've got big hands or the other way around. Really, no generalisations can be made.

:+1: Every guitar is a fingerstyle guitar. Especially the one I'm playing at the time. :winkin:
Andres, welcome and congrats on your "new" Larrivee. I to found my D03e at a GC and had a similar experience playing several Martins, Taylors, Gibsons and a few other Brands before finding the D03 and thinking wow!. Amazing guitars for the money compared to the others and they easily compete and surpass in Tone and playability.
