There aren't normally more than a couple of Larrivees on eBay UK and I've not seen one like this before on there.  Apparently previously owned by William Orbit but there's always something a little worrying about a twelve string that has only six string on it.   :UND>

Looks like a J-10-12.

pre-1990. Actually its a model 75 based on the serial number. I don't see abalone perfling, so its not a 10 series.

I'd ask about bridge or top problems since  someone has strung it with only 6 strings. maybe thats being overly cautious on my part...?

I count 8 strings. And I noticed the heaviest strings are cut off at the pin. Very sloppy. Why did he buy the guitar if it wasn't to play it?
