Just jostlin' up the herd some. Looking to try something new. Here's my

Larrivee LV-09

This one's built in California USA. It's in excellent condition aside from a blemish on the side (pictured below). It's under the finish and was there when I bought it used from Guitar Center.

Here's my initial review... "It’s the first wood box I’ve bought for a long time. It’s gorgeous and sounds fabulous. Well balanced, crisp, clear, and very LOUD. The neck is nice and slim which I like a lot. Still getting used to the 1 3/4 nut. Probably not my favorite for playing an acoustic solo, but for pickin and strum in, MAN!"

 

I didn't take pics of the case, but it's really nice. Here's a stolen image

 

The blemish:

 

In order to save some time, this is from their site...

 

Please note, the list price there is for the base model without electronics. This one has their higher end dual source pickup system...

 

I'm asking $1800 shipped to the lower 48... Or like I said, got something new for me to try?

Thanks to the folks that sent notes, but after getting a setup on this one I've decided I need to hang on to it for a while longer.

Larrivee makes great guitars, and are underrated and underappreciated.

I seem to have an unnatural draw towards underrated and under-appreciated guitars, not to mention undervalued. I have a few walls filled mostly with Ovations and Peaveys
