I haven't seen may of these...Larrivee Custom 28???  Who knows the story behind this model??   Great pics on this auction too..Yum-Yum!!  Maybe its just the lighting, but the abalone around the top on this one looks alot whiter than the more recent stuff.

the abalone looks like tinfoil.

very handsome guitar.  could it be a predecessor to the L's?  interesting to see the early larrivee's had the center strips on the inside and outside of the back joint.  i wonder when that was done away with?  i would presume the bright abalone areas are just a result of blownout highlights as a result of too much contrast, nothing unusual, considering the pic is taken in sunlightl.  i wish larrivee would make that rosette available again, as a custom option.

The L28 was the designation for a deluxe florentine cutaway model in the mid 80's. It has the identical inlay motif as my '84 L10 Deluxe.

The guitar appears to be in excellent condition.

Its actually real hand cut abalone as opposed to the abalam used by many makers these days.

I really like the detail Wendy Larrivee hand etched into my Seahorse.
