schundog Posted February 22, 2012 Author Posted February 22, 2012 I should mention, I owe Steiner a debt of gratitude for having his contact make me some trussrod covers and a pickguard; Greg, YOU DA MAN!!
kidsmoke Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 man, that 450 just does it for me. Typical Larrivée with no pg. Do you own other acoustics? How would you characterize the sound?
Spook410 Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 Pictures. Though it seems everyone around here has one of these.

Before this I had a 445, the tone was fairly similiar from the best of what I can recall, though I think the 450 is perhaps a tad bit brighter - before the 445 I had a KOA Martin acoustic (Laminate I believe?), it had a really cool and unique sound to it, but it did not project very well (was not very loud). Here are a couple of clips I recorded a while back: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3272872/450%20blue%20eyes.mp3 Here is one that I believe was done on the 445 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3272872/Ruby%20Tuesday.mp3
totonka Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 Some dude in Alaska popped up a while back and had an acoustic with an oval sound hole....don't recall the handle of that fella, tho. This is what I was referencing earlier, the H480, from HOC Member akguitar. Super cool

Guest HRB853370 Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 I think the Bird may be calling "here" soon.
DavesNotHere Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 I think the Bird may be calling "here" soon. Not the Bird!
SouthpawGuy Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Not the Bird! Maybe someone the Bird knows then ?
DavesNotHere Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Maybe someone the Bird knows then ? Could be...could be...
kbp810 Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Could be...could be... So you're saying that no one "here" bought it?
DavesNotHere Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 That would be a clever way to say it. I'll post some (crappy) pictures when I get back to the house.

DavesNotHere Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Thanks. I gotta' put one of the new girl here in the "official" thread. 1991 HFT-445
