I walked into my favorite guitar store this weekend ... to make one of my 'several times each month, play all the cool new toys' sessions ... and I was floored by Larrivee's new 'travel guitar.' Ya gotta see and hear this thing to believe it.

It is similar in size and looks to small guitars made by Taylor and others, but this thing has a sound like a great, full sized guitar. It plays pretty well (short scale takes a bit of getting used to), and it is not a lot bigger then Martin's back packer.

I know where my next $300 is going. Sorry kids, you'll have to wear those old shoes one more year;-)
