RE: Steemit Openmic week 51 -- "Summertime," (Original Music by @thedamus)

Cheers philodendron!

Jean Larivee started in Montreal, before moving to Victoria, then Vancouver, and now they've moved the shop to Oxnard, California.

I visited factory when it was still here in Van and had one of my "Best guitar days ever" seeing how they were made.

Since then i had always wanted a Larrivee that was made in Vancouver. I got lucky with the one in video. I bought it (second hand) in immaculate condition and inside it says "handcrafted in Vancouver British Columbia" among the other specs. I adore this guitar! It also has onboard p/ups so i can plug in. What i like is that there are no knobs, sliders, or anything cut in or sticking out. I am going to do a post about my gal soon... keep an eye out for it.

Cheers! from @thedamus

Very cool! Can't wait to hear more about your gal! I have an electric(gibson)and a classical (lapatrie made in Quebec) and have been looking for an acoustic for awhile, it would be nice to have one made in Canada, thanks for the awesome discovery, I'll be keeping an eye out for a larivee for shure! Cheers @thedamus 🍻

Guitars made with love!
