Some time back, Roger had both an LV-09 and a LV-10. I played both of them a lot while I tried to convince my wife this was an essential purchase. (Fat chance

They were both gorgeous but in the end, I think I swayed toward the LV-09. Would love to meet it again.
That must have been over 10 years ago... the pair that was sitting in a queen street was definitely a sight.
Was disappointed that they didn’t have enough larrivees stocked up when I visited Auckland last year
Actually longer. I've been separated for 14 years.......
14 is over 10 years.....
im off to bangkok tonight, and they have some really nice larrivees at one of their dealers.... unfortunately the nice ones are all boxed up. i have been unable to convince them i can pay for one, so they have yet to let me play anything more than a 03..... sad really.

I can't find a glamour shot but here's mine in action:
This one is a slightly odd model, an S7p.
Same woods, design, bracing pattern, etc as a O10, but to provide a lower cost guitar, they built them with a one piece neck, and very simple binding and finishing. It's an amazing guitar, and I got it for a good price, maybe not amazing, but I was able to play it first and it's become my favourite guitar.

Nice guitars, do you know the year?

I'd just like to add that one of you should keep your eyes open, just in case of a low flying ducks or a flock of annoyed starlings coming in low etc...

Ah yes. Price seems a little on the high side, but not much. Looks great.

Fair enough, but next time you might want to set some perimeter alarms. Even milk bottle tops on a tripwire would help

Set up a perimeter of Chardonnay bottles and they'd never get through.
