The Larrivettes resurface!

Here is an homage to the Larrivettes who skated by night and built guitars by day! Sure there are no skates, pads, pucks or even ice in these pictures but behind each of these steely stares lies a committed player willing to 'go the distance' no matter the foe, even when our biggest obstacle was a serious lack of talent, other than George of course who was poetry in motion!

Watch out for my new site with vintage guitars available!!

That's right, there is a new site being assembled right now that features both my instruments and a revolving supply of vintage and used handmade instruments under an umbrella name (to be revealed)
Here is a taste of some of those instruments! They include the SJ200 mentioned before, the extremely rare 1935 Gibson E-150 lapsteel and an early Linda Manzer Algonquin archtop guitar. There will loads more specs as well as other choice pieces appearing soon (including an excellent Borges flat top) so if any of them peak your interest, just contact me at my regular e-mail address: tonyds@pathcom.com
