Well, I know I've only had it a couple of months but with the new baby coming in the next 2-3 weeks, maybe sooner, I'm going to need the money more (to buy diapers no doubt). I haven't had the time to really grow accustomed to it like my OM-03R anyways. I was going to trade it for a new 12 string but changed my mind. Fred, thanks again for selling it to me and sorry I've got to sell it so quickly.

Denis, that is a bummer that you have to sell. But, on the plus side, you have a new baby coming that will change your life much more than any guitar. Man, count your blessings in that department--especially with all that is going on around the crazy world. I think you will probably have some Canadian buyers interested in the LSV.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend doing business with Denis. He's cool!

Thanks for the vote of confidence Fred. I probably won't have to play any guitar for a few weeks at least after this one is born. Our first is 28 months now and takes up almost all of our energy already. I cannot imagine what it will be like with a newborn added to the mix???!!!

Denis, congratulations on the forthcoming new addition. Hopefully, you will have the same experience my wife and I had in that the 2nd child seems a bit easier to manage initially. My girls are about 35 months apart.
I'm sorry you're having to sell the LSV, but maybe something good can come of that, as well! :WNK> Can you tell me if this guitar handles altered (dropped) tunings well? I'm sure it's a fingerstyle monster.

I'm sorry will be another boy and they will be 29 months apart. I am looking forward to it but not the sleepless nights. The second must be a bit easier because the parents aren't as worried, less anxieties if you know what to expect. Right?
The LSV-05 is everything you could want in a fingerstyle guitar. It's small and comfy to sit with and has a more balanced tone than the regular size L or LV. So there's a better balance between bass and treble. Mahogany is definitely something Larrivee does well. This guitar is just like the 05 series, the earlier ones, were used to. Alternate tunings work very well with this guitar. I'm surprised by the amount of overtones. Not as many as my OM-03R but then rosewood is known for overtones. It's a very open, woody tone and tons of sustain.
Timing is bad for me, sigh. I'll just have to wait for another one to come back up for sale few month down the road.

Too bad Calvin. She's real sweet.
Either way, I seem to have a bunch of interest in it. The reserve hasn't been met yet but I've got nearly 30 people "watching" the auction. I've got a local guy coming in to try it at the office this morning. Then I've a possible trade brewing with another forum member. We'll have to wait and see where the chips fall.
very pretty guitar!
Good luck with the sale
