This seems like a good deal? 

[el guitana]

Yes. There's an 01 or 03 koa parlor on e-bay right now at 500 plus. This is an 05. I'd have to say it's not the prettiest koa I've seen, but that seems like a real good price.

Koa? Looks like mahogany to me - are we sure Willie has it right?

[bleumax]

i think that's mahogany too. also, the gloss finished parlor w/ koa should be an O-09.

if that's not HOG, I'll never buy another instrument again :GRN> :GRN> (well at least not today :rolleyes:)

However, not a bad price for a mahogany parlor of the new style.

[el guitana]

I'll add that it looks more like mahogany to me also. I'm no expert, so maybe it's just not very figured koa. Get the serial number and e-mail Larrivée for the buiuld sheet specs on that guitar.

I think it's still a fair price if mahog.

Perusing Willie's prices on his inventory I don't think it is that great, my local retailer sells Seagulls for less. If that is Koa I'm changing my name to Blind Gary Davis.
I paid less for my gloss O-05 w/HSC new a couple of months ago.

If I understand how Larrivee labels their guitars, wouldn't an 0 in Koa be an O-09K?

Yeah, I agree that is SO not Koa!  :rolleyes:
