Something "happened" during the image loading..... But if you right click the little icon, and select "open in a new tab", then you can see an image.

justz, just curious...
- Am I correct to assume that these commemorative guitars were built in 2017? - Do you happen to know how many of the L-03 150th were made? It seems there was a D-03 150th as well. - What is the fretboard and headstock overlay made of? - What is the string spacing at nut and saddle? - What is the string height at the 12th fret? - Are you the original owner?

Hello,
Yes, they made these in the D body as well. They were built in 2017, although my understanding is that there were some finished in 2018. I do not know how many were made. The headplate and the fingerboard are Ebony. the nut size and saddle string spacing are 1-3/4" and 2-1/4", strings at the 12th is .050 on the bass, .03-.04 on the treble. I am the original owner. Thank you. Quote:

Thanks for the further info. It seems like quite a nice guitar which I’ve been considering to the extent I’ve done some digging. I think you may be off on the nut width and string spacing. Fwiw, here’s what I found on the Larrivée website. This site profiles the D-03, but the detail states it was available in D, L, LV and OM body styles. Likely, the nut width and saddle spacing are the same on all.
Scale Length: 25.5” Upper Bout: 11.875” Waist: 10.875” Lower Bout: 16” Body Depth: 5” Nut Width: 1-11/16" Saddle Spacing: 2-3/16" It’s tempting, but I’m going to pass. GLWTS!

Having owned both D and L models, I can confirm that the OP’s specs are correct for L models (fingerpicking). Tom‘s are correct for the D model (rhythm).

I have a Custom shop L03W (sitka/walnut) with the leaf inlay in the fretboard, none in the bridge - but 3 bigger leaves at the headstock.
This has become my goto guitar - it beats out guitars selling for 3 to 4 times as much! Excellent tone, playability, build quality, wood selection - it has it all. I put an LR Baggs Active Element VTC pickup in it - just superb! A buyer would be more than impressed with this guitar... BTW, mine isn't for sale! Best of luck on your sale.

Just to confirm, I have measured it and nut size and saddle string spacing are 1-3/4" and 2-1/4", same as the standard L series.
