You think this is hype? Or what.....

"I TOLD YOU... I DON'T WRITE ON THAT THING MICHEL DOES!!!!!!"

"NEW GUITAR EFFECTS PEDALS!!!"

Anybody else see the similiaritys?

[edac]

What's the name of your band?

I WILL GLADLY TELL THE MODERATOR>.. NOT YOU! I will also give the moderator pics and the number to call the Label or the Management company to verify....NOT YOU!

After you treat me like that and then I am supposed to tell you who I am!

You are pathetic... why you would take so much time from your life to try to make someone Else's life hard... is BEYOND me.

So you know... we just got a bunch of new gear... and so we get rid of all of the backup gear we don't need. The guitar pedals... part mine and part belongs to the other guitarist. The bass and drum stuff NOT mine.

But you know what man... I REALLY don't need to explain myself to you.

Like I said... I WILL GLADLY TELL THE MODERATOR>.. NOT YOU! I will also give the moderator pics and the number to call the Label or the Management company to verify....NOT YOU!

This thread is what is wrong with most forums, and I believe we as a group are better than this thread.

Good luck to the seller.

Good luck to members of the forum.

No one is forcing anyone else to pay for the guitar, unless you bid and win.

Kill this thread before it grows.

I think it's time you let it go roknroll. :UND>

[edac]

Andy, Sorry... I agree. It feels like the velvetrope forum in here.

[sixpickn]

and since this is a family show, it is permissible for off color language to be removed from previous posts by the original poster.  thanks.

[edac]

Sorry Jim.. went back and did that... my emotions got the best of me.

[Walkerman]

It just seems to me that for that sort of asking price, he'd at least have listed what sort of woods it was made from.

[ducktrapper]

Oh good grief. Good luck with your sale Edac. Let it rest now, can we? 

[dodge]

If it's a brazilian rosewood wood D10 then I have no issue with the price.
good luck with the auction whatever happens :GRN>

[sixpickn]

Oh good grief. Good luck with your sale Edac. Let it rest now, can we?

Ok folks, let's just act like adults and drop the whole thing.  It kinda makes me sad to see this on the Larrivee forum... I'm used to coming here and enjoying the time I spend on the forum.  Just think about it... how important is it to our lives even if "edac" IS trying to rip someone off?  And we really don't know the entire situation, so we shouldn't rush to judge him so quickly.  Let's get back to the good ol' fun chat we're all used to, whadyasay?  :UND>

Holly cow... I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO... after todays little ordeal... I just called up Larrivee... and I think Rocknroll may be right... it may be a D10. I have 2 others... holly !@#$!

So how much is it worth?

How can a normal D10 sound like this... OH GOD..... I FEEL LIKE AN -CENSORED-. IT"S MY FAVORIT...

Made in 97... all standard D10 stuff...

All Solid Mastergrade wood Construction, Single Piece Mahogany Neck, Canadian Sitka Spruce Sound Board & Bracing, African Ebony Fretboard & Bridge, Indian Rosewood Multi-Strip Body Binding, Rosewood Back & Sides, Symmetrical Parabolic X-Bracing, Hand fit Dovetail Neck Joint, Abalone Rosette & Top Purfling, Pearl Logo w/ Sterling Silver Border, Ping Tuners w/ Black Knobs (18:1 Ratio), Ivoroid Fretboard Binding, Larrivee Custom Beveled Pickguard, Deluxe Fretboard & Bridge Wing Inlays, Limited Lifetime warranty, Arch-top Case.

Help... please. I FEEL LIKE AN IDIOT HERE.

Now suposedly there is a LOT of custom work done on it before I got it... lowered the frets... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I feel horrible.

[bleumax]

I think D-10s go in the neighborhood of 1100 to 1600. Some of the older models sometimes fetch a premium.

[edac]

I FEEL 2 inches tall... and I just had them change the ebay listing.

Sorry, and thanks.

[NewStrings]

Edac, I congratulate you on your courage to post your findings with Larrivee and admit things were not as they had appreared.  It must not have been easy after all the things that had been said in previous posts.  I take my hat off to you!!!

[edac]

Thank you sir... I am still in shock.

On one side I feel completely screwed by the guy who I got it from. I did a LOT of session work for free to get her... and on the other I feel kind of grateful I got her in such a way.

This was the only guitar I ever purchased from a person directly... or bartered for directly... without going to a dealer or the manufacturer. Goes to show you huh!

[roknroll]

A little information about your product before you sell can make a world of difference.  Sure, I can sell a rock out in my front yard for $1000, but is it ethical?  A lot of people say "he can sell it for whatever price he wants"...ok, true, yes he can...but if ethics are getting in the way, expect to hear about it.  Take Exxon for example, they just gave their CEO a 400 million dollar retirement bonus during record breaking crude oil prices...America is speaking up about it too.  Some are even boycotting exxon.  You don't think your voice matters when it comes to issues regarding ethics?  Yes this is a grand capitalistic society we live in, but we also frown upon monopolys and exploiting goods and services.  Now if D-10s were no longer being made, I could care less what he was selling it for.  But since Larrivee is making a plethera of new D-10s every year, you can't exploit a sale of a used D-10 and expect not to hear about it.  Edac, sorry if I thought it was a shady ebay auction, but can you really blame me for thinking that?  Perhaps there were other issues that distanced our communication as welll, such as culture barriers,language etc.

[edac]

Indeed...

Ethics is the key, I agree completely... but I really wasn't trying to pull a fast one. I really don't do that. I though I was selling it at a good price. I would have punched you if you told me it was a D10 a week ago... I only have 4 Larrivee guitars (including this one) and I know more about electrics than I do about acoustics... and I have spent a LOT on a good ol' Les Paul... so it didn't seem out of the ordinary... I am not a gouger... really not. And usually concider myself thrifty.

Not after what I went through to get it.

Man... he sold it to me good. I really believed him.. and I loved it so, that I never bothered to check it.

I kind of owe you an apology there man... not bad for a 23 year old... where in the UK or OZ are you from?

Regarding oil... that is another galaxy... let's leave that for another day... and another forum, international politics between us could get rough. HAHAHAHA

it's been a LONG day, I think I am going to open a bottle of wine and play a Lerrivee. D-10... can't believe it.

[roknroll]

Edac, let bygones be bygones.  You know, I've made some of my bestest friends from disagreements upon first meeting.  I tend to have strong opinions, and I've been told I have a stedfast strong personality, sometimes it's hard to get along with me :UND>. But...there's a light at the end of the tunnel...No hard feelings, welcome to the forum.  I do owe you an apology.  I let my emotions get the best of me as well sometimes.  I also don't think you are a criminal or anything, I honestly believe now that you were just uninformed.  Forgive me.  I was actually born in the states.  My father however is from ireland , and sometimes his lingo rubs off on me.  Good luck with your sale, I'm sure it will find a good home.  -Andrew

PS...you should consider keeping the D-10 :TON>
