« Larrivee D-03 »
Published on 01/19/02 at 15:00I paid $400 with a fender acoustic trade-in, here in Anchorage, AK.
With this particular instrument, The first thing that I noticed is the simple, yet very clean, look of the guitar, which I prefer. Upon playing the instrument with the very limited talents that I posess, it was readily apparent that this instrument had a very distinct sound compared to the other instruments that I tested. I was suprised by the sound output, which was very robust and clean, in comparison to the guild(DV06), taylor(?), ovation(?), and the Takamine that I had played. This is a very enjoyable guitar played both softly and with vigor.
The only thing that I didn't prefer about the instrument is the action came very stiff. I understand that most guitars come that way so that the individual customer can set their guitar up the way they prefer, which I plan to do.
This particular instrument had no apparent flaws with both materials and craftsmanship. The choice of wood (mahogany, spruce, and ebony) not only put out a pleasant sound but also blended well asthetically.
Many people had told me about their thoughts about Larrivee and the instruments that they produce, but I tend to take such things lightly and see for myself. After shopping around and trying different instruments from other respectable brands, I can see that their words are much warranted. This has to be one of the best values in the market.
