Topic: Larrivee guitars (3 replies, posted in Acoustic)
Gidday.
Always on the look out for another guitar.
i`ve just tried a Larrivee,it ticked a lot of my boxes.
but something not quite right,the guys in the shop
fitted martin strings for me,that made a big difference.
i would love a Martin but in NZ they are very over priced.
With the usa printing money the $ exchange rate with NZ
is favourable for a change. All USA made guitars have come down in price.
EG Fender Amercian Standard Strat 3yrs ago $2600 now $1800.
Martin price unchanged.
So i`m looking for a quality guitar,but don`t want to be ripped off.
Any other quality brands come to mind???
Where would you rate the larrivees?

I`ve always been a huge fan of Fender, I own An American Standard Strat & a Tele.
Have always played them with the lead that comes in the fender case.
Recently i saw an old fashioned curly lead in the music shop ,had to have it.
It`s a VOX brand, WOW this has given my sound a real zap!
I guess all leads are different,never really thought about it.

gidday,
A lot of chordians complain about Beatle songs not being available.
often say` Mccartney is greedy`
I don`t think the beatles own many of their songs.
I think Mccartney owns the Buddy Holly songs though.
