1981 LARRIVEE L09 Acoustic - Made in Victoria BC

These are the holy grail of Larrivee guitars. The pre 1983 were all hand constructed in Victoria by Jean and a small group of workers. Label is signed by Jean. These feature lacquer finishes (2 years before they switched to polyurethane). It also has the marquetry rosette and large sound hole. It's in great shape. Some lacquer chipping around some parts of the binding, some melted lacquer at the headstock (from a stand) and a couple dings on the top. No cracks or repairs. 1 3/4" at nut. Solid Indian rosewood back and sides. Solid spruce top, ebony bridge and fretboard, one piece mahogany neck. Martin thinline pickup installed. Excellent action and playability. No top belly. I am in the process of moving, and my workshop is packed up. I intended to dress the frets, and buff the body/clean up the guitar as a whole. These are hard to come by in this condition, quite rare and highly sought after.

Final note. Please be advised that this instrument is not in perfect shape. As mentioned it is 31 years old (older than some of you) and has some wear & tear. If you are looking for a vintage instrument in mint condition this is not the guitar for you. It is however an instrument of impeccable artistry and rare to find. This was a dream to play. Because of this instrument I am a BC Rich bass fan for life. From the exotic woods, proprietary composition, engineering, electronics, smooth feel & wicked capability this vintage instrument is beautiful to look at and play.
