1999 Larrivee J-09 Natural
No sales tax for customers outside California.
I was a Larrivee dealer back in the day when I had a retail shop here in Northern California. One of my long time employees couldn't pass up the Larrivee employee discount and purchased this guitar, mostly because of the killer deal he was offered.
He played it but took great care of it. Fast forward 24 years and here we have a beautiful example of a Vancouver BC built Larrivee case queen. There are only two very small dings (see pics) from a drunk room mate of the past.
Maple bound rosewood back and sides, with a spruce top and comfortably slim mahogany neck give this a traditional look with a jumbo sized sound. We took it through our usual round of checks and balances and it didn't need much more than a new set of strings.
The action is perfect and we checked the truss rod to make sure there is plenty of room for personal adjustments down the road. The frets show light wear with tons of life left before they might need a level and crown.
It does not have an end pin due to the removal of an aftermarket under bridge pickup. Comes with the original hard shell case.
