Hope this gets read by lawn jockey. Are you in the Baton Rouge area? I would be interested in meeting other Larivee owners.

Newbie here with 2 dealers I can highly recommend plus another dealier I'd like visit soon.

As a a newcomer to Larrivee (but not to guitars), I have already had a number of courteous, prompt and detailed exchanges with Jim Holler at Trinity Guitars.  I was looking there at one of his used instruments & wound up, after prodding from a longtime member of this forum, ordering a Forum IV.

Like others here, I found the video examples of various Larrivee models posted by Guitars of Pikesville to be helpful.  Just wish there were more!  (It probably doesn't hurt that that shop is less than two blocks from where I spent my childhood years through age 14.  If it's from Pikesville, it just can't be all that bad.)  Good reason to make a trip back some time in the next year!

Finally, there's a nice little string instrument shop in my current town -- Durham, NC's own High Strung.  Don't know how many Larrivees they might have on view, but the store is definitely worth a visit if you ever come to visit Duke U.

Another vote for Guitar Adoptions.  This dealer was an incredible find for me as a left handed player because he maintains a large stock of southpaw Larrys. I also got the deal of the century price wise.

The guitars aren't easy to find in stores, but there seems to be no shortage of reputable dealers. For lefties, Jerry's Lefty Guitars and GA always seem to have something on hand. I ordered a D-03R and an L-03RE from GA, and didn't have much of a wait either time.

There's plenty of stocking Larrivee dealers around Atlanta. So it varies from location to location.
