What would you like to see into'd at NAMM?

[Calvin]

The stock Pings aren't the tightest tuners, but I've never had any problem with them.  They are no worse than tuner used by any other major manufactures.  Of course a 200 dollar waverly set is going to be a more precise and tighter set; but then again, for 200 bones I can get 2 x SM 58's.  Hahaha.

It's just diminishing returns.  20 dollars vs 220 dollars for only 5% of difference.

As for New guitars, I want something more versatile and performance oriented.  There are enough acoustics in the line up.

[Denis]

Nobody has guessed it yet! 

Would that OM-10 with Mexican Ziricote  , that I saw on your site be something we'd see at NAMM?

If not, why don't you just tell us.  We're all dying to know Dave...

[Caleb]

I know what it is:  Larrivee is going to announce thier new line of Chinese imported guitars, that are, of course, going to be set up and gone over with a fine-tooth comb here in the USA.  I hear that these imported models will come standard with Waverly tuners though.  Go figure....

[LookingForLarri]

Nobody has guessed it yet! 

Time to come clean Dave !!

[Randy_R]

my guess..

Larrivee 40th Anniversary commemorative edition.

All of them will have hand signed labels by Bruce Cockburn... 

With cremefilled donut special headstock inlay...

No way!! That one is mine! It's a one of a kind, and in my opinion the best sounding Larrivee I have ever played.
It's on my site at well over list price.

Still waiting Dave...come clean or we'll, we'll...damn...just tell...please????

[guitaradoptions]

Well, I can pretty safely guarantee no new 03 models, thats for sure. In fact, there may be a few less!

Dave, Are you going to make us wait till Thursday? At least keep the hints coming.

[Miata13]

O.K. Dave....I've read the 3 page thread so far....no new 03's, no Koa, no OO's or OOO's or LS or LSV's, commemoratives, donut inlaid models or nylon cross overs..or Taylor-like T-5's either....

Perhaps a resurrection of the Jumbo or a new 12 string???  If so, whew, as I'd GAS for neither of those models but Jean's newer Parlor models with new to Larry wood types quilted mahogany etc. are enticing....

"But wait...theres more"......a RETURN of Blackwood? 

How many donuts do we need to deliver to you Dave for more hints?

Hmmm, why am I starting to dread the news?

OK, they've decided to close the Canadian line, and California will focus on high-end D45 variants ....

Or could it be that they're converting Canada back to gloss, and bringing back the -04  ....

Try Lobster Tail! 

[guitaradoptions]

Ok, fine... here's a sneak peak!

[inspector13]

OK   DAVE . . . You are having way too much fun with this, aren't you? Your just laughing your A$$ off. Right?

Oh ya   That dounut thing is just wrong. Funny but wrong.

[Caleb]

Less 03 models would be a shame.

[dermot]

the 03SP would most likely go as they are all sappelle now.... there's a few gone with no change......

Ta,

d.

Less better mean streamlining by making only Ds, OMs and Ls, no cutaways, and only in an 03 and 03R...it had better not mean ending the Vancouver line altogether...tell us that at least Dave, tell us that they will make satin finish guitars in Vancouver for many more years to come????  Please????   

[Mikeymac]

tick ... tick ... tick ...

...so much gear I'm waiting to hear about from NAMM (Larrivee's for sure, but lots of other stuff, too!)...

tick ... tick ... tick ...

[Tralfaz]

Try Lobster Tail!

Hmmm.....

Lobster tail is red.....

Perhaps we'll see a Redwood guitar?

No worries about that Denis! Vancouver will be around for a long time!
