Hi there.

Noticed this model for the first time yesterday and its image has been haunting me ever since. Have any of you ever seen one up close? Had a chance to play one? I'd love to know what you think.

A guy in Toronto bought one and was keeping a daily blog of his experience.   Someone posted the link around here somewhere.

Yo, welcome to the Larrivee forum. I must warn you that you are 90% closer to buying a Larrivee now.

...and 85% closer to buying more than one.

Hudster, I think it's somewhere beyond a mere 90%... Man, what a beautiful guitar. Yikes.

Tycho, thanks for posting that link!

The Canadians are now known for hockey AND high quality guitars. {Begins to sing}"Oh Canada...."

Just played one today.great FIT and FINISH,and NO SHARP FRETS.Very easy to play guitar with really nice note separation.The wider nut doesn't bother me and the neck has a nice round feel to it.Action from the is a bit high for my taste but a fingerstyle player will love it.Projects nicely and has a very balance smooth tone{not overly bassy,which I'm use to from rosewood}.As for the inlays,there nice but I could do without them.I'm not into bling.So if you get a chance run out and play one I think Larrivee has a homerun here. :GRN>

unclrob, just for my reference can you describe the LSV-11s tonal charateristics, volume compared to say a OM-09?

poki the tone is less compressed when played against an OM,very L like in volumn.This may be due to the large soundhole.

Right Blue, like an LSV-03R...why not?  I'd buy one!!  :GRN>

LS-03R please... or heck, even an 09 version (though I don't know what you'd call that for this short-scale guitar, since LS-09 is already taken for the regular scale regular soundhole type).

You could call it the LSV-911, but that designation is politically loaded, and emotionally loaded for some folks, too.

LSV-911....thats too funny.... ^_^ ^_^

your right though...considering the flak the recent movies about 9/11 are getting it may not be the best choice of names
