I've never heard of "candy" blue but that's going to be fabulous. I can't wait to see the finished product. Keep us posted.

Nah I'd say it's you; as legs look in proportion to table and RS 4 body the same with his arm. But gotta say your observation skills a little stronger than mine as when all I saw when I 1st looked was that new RS 4 body with a one of a kind color. That's gonna be a true treasure you might have to get another of a common color to use everyday and keep this one for "special occasions"

It's modelled on the LS body. Not large. Heavy muffa though!

I'd say you're right ... he looks like a healthy big boy!

I don't think there's any denying that he's a big fella. For comparison purposes................

Hi Joyce, I love the colour of your new guitar!
It reminded me of a picture I saw recently of a much older Larrivee solid body electric from the 1980's. The picture is attached. The caption under the picture reads:
"Nane Kvilsäter playing his LT-4 Custom LT-4 in Iroc Blue (Chevy color) with black and white binding."
I have no idea who he is. Swedish. Spiky hairdoo. Blue satin 1980's stage getup. And, a very, very cool looking guitar.
An "Iroc" is a model variation for Chevrolet Camaro. It hasn't been used for many years.
So I suppose if someone asks you about your guitar and says "WOW! Great guitar. What colour is that?" You can answer "Iroc". And, of course, having a guitar that looks that good, you do indeed rock.

Nice Iroc blue guitar!
Sorry Fritferret. I mis-read the thread. The new blue one is yours!

That is the color my old Larrivee six string fretless electric bass was. Gold Schaller hardware. It truly was a thing of beauty. If anyone ever sees it I am always looking.  Thus, this is a color they have done before, just not for 20+ years.  This should be a beautiful guitar.
