Hello from So Cal - New member

[Berserker]

I'm excited to be aboard and hope to contribute soon often. I live in Corona (home of Fender), CA.   Just ordered a L-03R yesterday from Jason at Notable.  Great guy, great service and an unbeatable price.  I'm anxiously awaiting delivery,which is expected on Friday.  Feel like a kid at Christmas.  Talk at all of you soon.

Temperatures here don't vary too much....between 60-80 generally and farily dry....but not desert dry.  Would you all recommend a humidifier?  I always try to err on the side of safety, but certainly don't want to purchase something that is unnecessary.

  I absolutely love the L-03R.  Congratulations and welcome to the forum.  Post some pics when you get it and don't forget the traditional donut offering by new members.

[Berserker]

Can't forget the most important thing.   Think this will one will be enough for everyone!

Gil

PS  Pics will definitely follow the arrival!!!

It gets reaaaaalllly dry during the Santa Ana winds.  And if you have to use the heater in the winter, that will cause dryness also.

Welcome to the forum and to Larrivee guitars.  I live in Oceanside,Ca.  I keep humidipaks in all my guitar cases.  You will be surprised just how much the humidity fluctuates in S. Cal.  I would just do it.

I live about 45 minutes from you and I always keep my babies humidified. I don't remember the weather being so nice in Corona...I used to work in Chino and drove by Corona everyday and it used to get HOT!...Beutiful city though.
Oh, welcome! You are going to love it here, a bunch of great people hang out here.

[Berserker]

Well, it's settled.  Going to go shopping for some humidifier packs.  Does anyone have recomendations as to a product?  I suppose you could pick them up from GC, MF, M123, Sam....etc.

And thanks for the welcome guys.....and/or gals.

Planet waves Humidipacs.  Clean and easy.  Worth the peace of mind knowing the guitar is well protected.  You can most likely get them at GC.

You are going to love the "L" body.

Hey Berserker,

Welcome..... I work in Corona (very near the Fender Plant),and live in Chino Hills. Also new to the forum, Larivee, and guitar playing. I have an OM-03R (1998) that I'm learning on. I've heard a lot about the L-03R's.... I don't know how they feel for me though.

Maybe we can meet up some time.

[Berserker]

Thanks for the welcome everyone, hey gitbox.  I've lived here for 6 years now. originally from Huntington Beach.  I work.....well all over LA, Hollywood......one of those actor-types.  I'm a novice (aren't we all) as well.  I have a small workshop at the house here and build electrics (currently finishing a Strat clone for my niece and have 5 others on deck).  One day I'll try and tackle an acoustic, although it is much more an art form than what I build.  We will have to have a gtg and shoot the breeze and maybe play a bit, or at least try.  Maybe hook up with other locals that frequent the forum.  Ahhhhh.......Friday is coming toooooooo slow.
