Default NGD Larrivee

Well it’s here and I am more than pleased. This guitar is outstanding and I love it. I need to make a few tweaks adjusting string height, but other than that, it’s a keeper. Sorry about shop photos, but my phone doesn’t do it justice.

Looks like it sounds pretty sweet.

SD40R slot head? Wow, bet that thing just makes the house rumble. Great looking rosewood too.

Lovely, Larrivee makes great guitars. Love my D-19 and L-09. Those woods are beautiful and I'm sure it sounds great! Enjoy! Torch slotted headstocks always grab my attention, NICE!

I remember you mentioning that guitar a while ago. I’m glad you got it! I love my standard SD40.

Wow! What a great looker with the slotted torch headstock. With that 12 fret design I bet it's got a big, full sound.

Huge Larrivee fan, I would love to hear that guitar.
Can not go wrong with Alpine spruce. And I will bet the Malaysian gives you beautiful articulation.
Please give us a description of the tone.
