Ah, Jed, nice. I know this is late, but still. I live in Lake Charles, Louisiana (which I think you've been to on multiple occasions). I'll be playing at the Celtic Festival and Balladeer Festival in October and on Paddy's Day. Hope to see you at the festival this year. Don't be surprised when you see me, like most people are. Pretty young. XD

Hey, Jed. Did you get a case with the new guitar? The one I saw you bring your old one in to Fenian's recently looked pretty well-used.

BTW, did you get my long off-board e-mail last week? Among other things I was writing about the lyrics you had asked about when we talked.

Don't try sleeping with it, Jed. I don't think Louisa will be jealous and she already knows you're nuts, but don't push it...

And congratulations. Mr Bigstar!
You need my address for your old guitar?

Congratulations Jed!
They are fine guitars! A friend of mine has one hand built by Jean Larrivee himself, before he became famous. A beautiful work of art.

Can I have your old one? I'll pay shipping charges.
Just kidding - I'm thinking seriously about a bazouki or octave mando, so don't worry about the old Larrivee.

Just be glad Guinness didn't sponsor you, or you'd have to take a black guitar with 'Guinness' plastered on it, and you'd probably still have to pay for your drink. As you don't drink, the Larrivee was probably a good deal.

Seriously, congratulations! You've got the talent, you've paid your dues and you do right by your music and your friends. I love hearing about good things happening to good people.

Jed,Larrivee is lucky to have you. When are you bringing that famous guitar back to Toronto?

Yep - I have two pubs shows next weekend (slow season for festivals) Jan 5 & 6. Fri I'm in Shreveport LA at the Noble Savage and Sat Im in Jackson MS at Fenian's Pub.

Please say hello, if you make it out to one of them.

Details are posted at the "jed's schedule" link above.

Thanks for the link MMario.

New ax'll be here soon, I expect ... I'll probably start using it right away - It'll be my only guiatr when I fly - but when I drive, I'll use for standard tuning work and I'll use my J-10 for the other tunings (low standard, DADGAD and D Major).

raccoon? stilts?

Larrivee's consolidating models, rather then creating new ones. Martin's the one that makes the signature guitars ...

Oops - I mean the L-09E ... didn;t care about the fancy inlays ... preferred the simpler look.

Thanks y'll. I am honored to be listed among Larrivee's featured artists. I'm a long time Larrivee player. I am happy to be endorsed by them and play their beautiful guitars.

I did have my choice, Seamus - and this is what I chose: L-10E

I love this body type and the woods used. Great electronics too. I'm hanging onto my Jumbo too - and will probably add a baritone next year.


I am convinced that if you had to stick your hand into a dark room and pick out a guitar - you'd ALWAYS do well with a room full of Larrivees. He just makes great guitars - and I have something good to say about every one of his models .... er, ah, especially now that I have an endorsement!

;-)

Funny story about my first Larrivee - I had just restarted my performing career in 2000, and had a show at a club I hadn't played before. When I arrived, I told the manager who I was and he gave me a blank stare until he saw my guitar case - then he said "Oh, you're the guy with the Larrivee."

He didn't know me, but he'd heard of my guitar!

Art -- I assume it's a listing of artists whom the manufacturer hopes other buyers will want to emulate in their choice of guitars as they might in their artistry, that is, "famous folks" who play their guitars", as opposed to "just anyone" who happens to play their guitars.

Perhaps I am missing something...and it certainly wouldn't be the first time. I greatly appreciate Jed's talents as a singer and as a songwriter...I have most (all?) of his CDs and hope to hear him in person one day. However, the list on that web site is of people who own a particular brand of guitar, right? So...explain to me what I'm missing.

Look through the list and you will see what stellar company he is in. And they came to him. Knew his music, knew his playing, and asked him. I am so proud of my friend.
