Jim got you into going for a Larrivée then : they have a good reputation. When I started looking for a Martin guitar (many years ago), the seller i talked to advised me to get a Larrivée too : they were more even and cheaper he said...
Jim too, advised me to go for a Larrivée at he time I was looking for a cheaper guitar for live work : but I only buy guitars after playing them a little while and checking them out. These guitars are quite rare in France, and not so well known : I tried one only once, a D-60 E it must have been called (sitka/rosewood acoustic-electric dreadnought). Good quality, but I did want a Martin at the time and the guy wanted quite a bit...I don't know them well then, but it surely is a make to count with. And a U.S. made Custom Shop at that price seems unbelievable...
Congrats and hope you won't miss the all-mahogany set-up.
