This is a unique guitar in that it was purchased from the Custom Shop (Larrivee, who else?) between 1984 and 1985 (according to the serial number and some help from the good folks at Larrivee) by Joe Bethancourt.  Joe was a famed Folk Musician in Az and round about.  He passed away just a few years ago and was soon inducted into the Folk Music Hall of Fame in Arizona.   I purchased it from his estate not long ago and have not been able to play it due to progressive illness.  

This guitar is pristine, indeed MINT (less some very very light scuff on the clear pick guard).  Not a mark, scratch or dent .. PERFECT.  It was ordered with the "Leaf & Flower #1" inlay on the neck and head stock.  Abalone rosette, purfling, .. , even the pins have inlay!  Give a listen on the link below.  Check the Reverb add for more specifics and lots of pics.    As you would expect, Indian Rosewood where it should be, Eboy and Mahogony as well.  Schaller tuners.  Hard case with new set of vintage strings, capo and even the truss rod wrench it came with new. The folks at Larrivee tell me this guitar goes for $5100 from the Custom Shop today!

Bump with major price drop ... I finally got one of the senior members here to give me some direction on what my guitar is really worth on todays market.  I really want to sell here, to another Larrivee fan.  Thanks for looking!  Flexible...
