Larrivee L-03 | Mint Condition as-new ***SOLD***

[chucknorris]

Greetings to everyone on the Larrivee Forum. Over the last few years I've compiled a sizeable collection of guitars. However, my wife recently imposed that it's time to cut down the collection to help pay for some house renovations. So unfortunately, it's time to thin the herd.

I have for sale a Larrivee L-03 acoustic guitar. It's in mint, as-new condition.

With this purchase you get:
1. Larrivee L-03 guitar in mint condition
2. Truss rod adjustment wrench
3. Larrivee hard shell case with Larrivee logo, thick black plush fabric interior - mint condition

It has little playing time on it, and as a result, has zero fret wear. There are no dings, dents, scratches, scrapes, warping of any kind whatsoever. The finish is mint, the wood is mint, the tuners are as smooth as butter, frets 100%.

The guitar has never been gigged, and has been stored in a strict humidity controlled playing studio at home here. I used humidity control devices for all my guitars and monitor humidity via my hygrometer.

The intonation is perfect. The guitar is setup for medium-light strumming and fingerpicking.

All original parts with the addition of: L.R. Baggs Ribbon Transducer installed professionally, and Mitchel's Plate Mate professionally installed. The L.R. Baggs pickup is just the pickup strip under the saddle, wire to a jack that's been installed at the back. There's minimal intrusion on the guitar from the pickup so tone and resonance is maintained. You could decide to never plug in the guitar and no one would ever notice you have a pickup installed - it's that discreet.

I have tried many many Larrivee L-03s. I've also been playing acoustic and electric guitar for nearly 15 years for hobby and with a band. After the Mitchel's plate mate install, the only noticeable difference was more sustain. I consider myself an extremely discerning audiophile and could detect no tonal colouration difference with the Plate Mate. By the way, the Plate Mate is designed to protect the underside of your guitar where the string rings meet the wood.

Here are the manufacturer site pages that have accurate information about the guitar specs:
