<blockquote>Friends I am pleased to announce a Dealer has been secured:<br />LA Guitar Sales has agreed to take this adventure to the next level.
<br />Some members are very aware of Ted at LA Guitars and his vast experience in doing custom orders.
<br />As a result of THIS TOPIC  we have reached this point.
<br />In order for this adventure to become reality we need 10 commited members at this point we have 6 with a few on the fence.
<br />Please be patient in regards to downpayment required and timelines they will come to light as the dealer gets up to speed and connects with Larrivee.
<br />I or  LAGuitars will post the detail options of the spec as I know them before Friday most of the things we have been discussing will be addressed. Some options have flexibility others are one or the other, still others I need clarity on.
<br />
<br />Hope this meets your approval to date. Friends this is an exciting time for us all and quite an opportunity of which I feel privledged to partake. Anyone considering a Larrivee electric - there could not be a better opportunity.
