guitar on order

[Lefty Dan]

So I made a post some weeks ago about ordering a lefty P-09 in Santa Cruz Ca.
They told me 4 to 6 weeks .
Its been almost 5 so I phoned them.
They said sorry but another 3 weeks.
Its killing me.
Just thought Id share with fellow players.

Dan,

Welcome from another lefty Larrivee player (as is bluesman67, I believe)!

When I ordered my first Larrivee in 1992, I think I waited around 4 months!  But believe me, it was worth it! I still have my first Larrivee (92 OM-05), and it's the one guitar I could never sell! 

Now I'm trying to wait patiently for the next Forum guitar to get settled on...(it will be my third Larrivee in 15 years...some things are worth the wait!)

[Lefty Dan]

Thought Id share my frustration.
They said 4 to 6 weeks.
Its been 11
I'm a buy it now guy, this is killing me.

[Mr_LV19E]

Waiting is good for the soul, but it's still a killer.

11 weeks? they must have had a shortage on the left handed Spruce

Have some  while your waiting.

Maybe if we all concentrate real hard we can get it to show up this week.
  Lotsa luck,
    Roger

I'm sending good left-haned vibes your way.  We all know what the waiting is like, believe me.   I'm keeping an eye out for the FedEx truck as I write this.

Since you've been so patient I'm also sending you this guy who plays like us:   

That ought to bring you some good luck.

hi lefty Dan I have been waiting since Jan 27 for my Lv09 . While waiting the store made me deal where I buy the Do5 that has been there a while and when my guitar comes in I can trade it in. The problem is I am really starting to like this guitar. This is the first time I have played Larrivee and have recorded with it . The sound is incredible. So hang in there it will be well worth the wait.

[Lefty Dan]

Thank you for all the kind words.
I know as a lefty I will have to wait. I also know my guitar is not the only one being built.

So, when it comes in I will let you know and also let you know how I like it.

Then my questions will begin. What strings, pick up ex...

Thanks to all my new friends at the Larrivee Forum.

Dan

[Lefty Dan]

Its here !!

I had to have my wife pick it up for me because I couldn't get off work.

Got home and there it was. What a beautiful case. I opened the case and what a beautiful guitar.

Now I know it will take some getting used to playing a small guitar but the sustain is great.

I got home late yesterday but plan on spending some time with it tonight. Then the questions will start.

Thanks for the emails of encouragement.

Lefty Dan.

[Mr_LV19E]

Congratulations on the new arrival Lefty Dan.

Don't forget to take some time out from playing to post pictures   

[bhika]

Congratulation Dan, I'm glad the waiting is over and the pick'n can begin.

[PortHueneme]

I would not hasve guessed to be such a log wait for a Lefty-Guitar, after all the P-09's are made out here on the left coast. 

I am sure it will worth the agonizing wait when it arrives though.

[Lefty Dan]

It only took that long because of a defective bridge.
So Im told.

Congratulations on finally receiving the P-09.  I know that you'll forget all about the waiting period once you've put in some playing time.   All good things in life are worth waiting for but that doesn't make it any easier does it?    Here's to your patience   

[noisetree]

Hi Dan,
congratulations!
I'm still waiting quietly for my lefthanded OM10.
Regards and enjoy!!!
