Advertised as LV-05 on eBay, I assume it's really a C-05.  It "has issues"   What a shame   :crying: :mad:

hmmmm...looks like an LV05 to me.....too bad some moron mistreated it so!
Just curious...What makes you assume it's a C-05?...that would be a classical, and it's definately not a classical.

The "C" designation would be correct as it's a Florentine cutaway.  The "V" in LV would mean a Venetian, rounded cutaway.

I agree...it is a Florentine...would that not be an LC-05?  :wave
But a mess is a mess, no matter what they call it, eh?
So, Denis, looks like you and I will have to keep playing our 00's eh? :roll

Yes and I can tell from some of your earlier posts that you and yours are bonding this summer...I know how that feels!!  I think it's really one of the best guitars Larrivee ever made and I imagine they'd sell enough if they started making them again. 

Larrivee always designated the L with a Florentine cutaway with "C".  They recently re-released the Florentines:

http://www.larrivee.com/4_news/news%20articles/2008/01-2008_florentines/florentines.html

They were the first cutaways Larrivee ever did I think...that guitar for Bruce Cockburn, that was the guitar at the back of Acoustic Guitar magazine a few months back.

Classical Larrivees are designated CS I believe.
