Mint condition. Hard case included. $1550, ship to ConUSA. Made in USA. Purchased new late 2021. Specs here: https://www.larrivee.com/products/000-40-legacy-series

I bought this guitar in part to better understand what a 12-fret guitar was all about. It is everything I expected and more. Wonderful resonance – you can feel it as well as hear it.

I've come to realize that I play this the least of all my instruments, mostly because I usually leave it in alternate tunings (it somehow lends itself to that). So when I reach for something to play I often bypass this one - "Nah... gotta retune."

I also have enough spruce/mahogany guitars. So I'm fine-tuning my stable with something new: another Larrivée 40 Legacy Series guitar. I like them that much. Only difference is the new one is Indian rosewood; I haven't had a rosewood guitar for a long time.

I don't think subjective statements about the sound of a guitar hold much water, but I can say this about this instrument: This is the only guitar I have ever had that I haven't experimented with different brands of strings until I found the sound that I felt was exactly right. OEM strings every time (D'Addario EXP16 12-53); I never wanted this guitar to sound any different.

Doug - I am back on the hunt for a 000-40 or 00-40 Larrivee! I had a 0-40R in the past - great guitar, just not enough volume. Is this 000 still available?




So are you saying this guitar doesn't do well in standard tuning ? I was hoping for a OOO 12 fret that could double flatpicking or fingerstyle.

I am closing this thread as there has been no reply for months. The OP can feel free to start another if needed.
