Title: D50v ???
Post by: SongMan on June 02, 2005, 07:16:37 PM
What is D50V? Normally V on Larrivee is cutaway and vintage on other brands. But I don't see what makes this guitar V.

The label sure enough says D-50 V.

Looks like a Matthew kind of question....

I don't know - but that looks like a nice guitar. Cool case, eh?

Here's my guess.

V stands for Vintage, as in old Martinesque vintage.

Ding ding ding. You win the donut!

The first ones were labeled D-50V.

The V just meant Vintage. The instrument has that vintage look to it. That was before we officially called it the traditional series.
