14 years ago and still as fresh today.  Imagine having Tommy as your neighbor tearing up the fret board on that custom Larrivee in the backyard.  How cool would that be?

Wow!

Lotta energy there!

I hope I'm not stepping on your post with this, Ron, but I was always partial to this song below (also played on a Larrivee!). Many have never heard it. Might be my favorite of his: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9a8MTcL_4Fs

I preferred Miyazaki's Dream. You got to hear the tonal possibilities of the instrument better. I wish Larrivee would make a standard model of the L as a 12-fret instrument. It would look so proportionally perfect. Last year there was someone on AGF trying to decide whether to sell his SD 40R or the TE model. Listening to the two instruments I could see why he decided to keep the TE model. There was just more of everything to it. I wondered if it was that 16" lower bout.

I once saw the TE model in a local store. Sadly, it was left handed so I couldn't properly play it, but the build quality was perfect. Loved the florentine cutaway!

Let me just add this, 
Herman
L-10, L-03 Custom shop Flamed Maple, OM-05, Forum VI, Forum VII.
And *others*

That's a nice piece, Herman. I think his best compositions are his slower ones. Of course, it's also fun to hear him tear into a song with lots of rhythm and energy, like the OP vid.
