NGD Larrivee SD40 12 fret slope
Well very early impressions I believe I’m going to love this guitar. I really enjoy the sound of my seagull and the Larrivee sounds so different it will be fun to switch back-and-forth.
There is an issue with the serial number. When I put it in the Larrivee website to check manufacture date it pops up as a completely different model. Then when trying to register for warranty it says it’s already registered. Anyway I emailed the company and kudos to them they got back to me very quickly and asked for photos of the guitar and the head block with the serial number. I’m sure it will get sorted out just fine. I will probably post again in about a month. I have several different strings I want to try on it. Also I have some Ebony bridge pins for it.

Yeah I bet that is an awesome guitar. I guess I just wanted to get something that wasn’t like any of my other guitars. I’m not a good player and looking forward to advancing with this guitar.

Congrats, enjoy it forever.
I've got a few Larrivée's myself, they're all staying. I'll have to try a 40 series soon.

Those 40 series guitars punch way above their price. Enjoy.

Cool Larrivee! I had one of these, but sadly the neck profile wasn't working for me. I tried out a lot of different strings on mine. I found that the DR Rare BG set 12-56 was my favorite.
Enjoy your 12 fretter!

I have set of J19's on my one of slope shoulders. They are several weeks old and in that pocket right before they go dead. Perfect!

Fantastic! What a beautiful 12 fretter.
I'm assuming that you bought the guitar as new? Did you buy from an individual or a retailer? Larrivee has great customer service so they should be able to find out what happened. |

Yes I bought it new from an authorized Larrivee dealer. The way Larrivee responded to me so quickly ( and on a Saturday) I have no worries about them getting it sorted out.
