Recent Winner of the D-40.

[Silence Dogood]

I saw via email that the D-40 drawing ended and the winner was listed.  It would be cool if he was a member here and could post about the guitar once he gets it.  I really wanted to win myself but didn't need another guitar!  To the winner: congratulations!

I also wanted to win, but I was just being greedy. I'd love to see him post some pictures, I'm sure it's a great looking guitar.

I wish there was an easy way to posts pics here.

Hmmm... I consider myself very much a Luddite and I don't have any trouble (though before the site was upgraded it was near impossible).  Maybe because I'm using a Mac?  Maybe it's different on a PC.

I am the winner of the D-40.  I received it on Tuesday but had to leave town on Wed.  So I haven't played it much.  Here is a quick pic I took for my kids.  I will post more once I get back home. Let me add that the folks at Larrivee have been incredible. I am have been particularly impressed with the way the family is hands-on. I received a call from John Junior as well as a few emails. Christine, emailed me the invoice.  Both were especially kind. This is truly a family owned and operated business.  Makes owning a Larrivee all the more enjoyable. The guitar arrived well packaged and sooner than expected.  I am very grateful for the guitar and the folks at Larrivee.

I post images from both PCs and Macs. Not much difference between the two.

If you simply begin typing in the empty post space at the bottom it defaults to QUICK REPLY. This can make adding images tricky.
Then you'll see "Click or drag files here to attach them" at the bottom. (You won't see this option if you're in QUICK REPLY mode.)

one more pic.  It is a beautiful guitar.  I was thinking that each handcrafted guitar is really a work of art.  Each is unique. There are always subtle differences in the wood.  I am looking forward to playing this one!

That maple binding really looks great against the sunburst finish!

[Silence Dogood]

What an amazing burst!  WOW!

[Queequeg]

Is the whole back of the neck black, or did they do a burst paint job on that as well?
