Just Arrived. . . . Larrivee L-10
The DHL guy came this morning and delivered my Larrivee L-10 this morning. Didn’t know what to expect when opening the box. Reason? I bought it from EBay so didn’t have to raise my expectations too high lest I get disappointed and unable to appreciate the guitar for its worth. Thankfully, it was as the seller described. Nice finishing; nice arch top OHSC which I personally prefer flat ones. Anyway it was nice conditioned.
Tried to tune it and perhaps in my eagerness I overtuned the G string and it snapped. Anyway, I had planned to drop the guitar at Jarvis to upgrade saddle to FMI so might as well have him do it. One reason is to see his quality of workmanship for myself. Since G4C speaks so highly of him.
Bought this in spur of moment; maybe due to missed opportunity to get the L-09 instead. I’m glad the bling isn’t as bad as I had imagined. Looks like a good keep. Now perhaps to offload L guitars.
