That doesn't mean the tone is better. For me it is, but as you know, different people have different tonal preferences. Of course the comparison to my AC522 is a bit unfair too, as it has a street price of 1100-1200. There are a lot of good options out there in the 1k range. That's good for everybody.

Also very true. Tapered vs. scalloped bracing. I also agree the Yamaha's are a heavier build. But like you said, they are going for different tone.

I have a LL 16 I like to play and sing with it.My E 10D is a lot louder but I feel like my voice gets drowned out.If I had a stronger voice it might be different.I bet the Larivee sounds real nice.

The one thing that you will not notice that happens with a new LL16 that you don't see a lot of mention of is that do have a break in period even though they are built with ARE technology. I was a tad bit disheartened with mine after the first several days of hard play when all of a sudden she opened up big time.
Don't get me wrong. It sounded nice. Down right good, but when this took place it went from from a guitar that simply sounded good to one that move ya every time you played it. Your choice of the LL16 is a fine one.

Larrivee D-03 is around £1100 in the UK whereas a Yamaha LL16 can be had for £600.
That's a big price difference!
