Hi everybody and thanks for accepting me in this forum.
I'd like to know which could be a quote for this guitar which is in very good conditions.  I come from Italy and here in Italy it is not brand with a lot of demand. I've seen some OMV 09 sold but not this special Quilted Maple edition.
When I say quote, I mean the price you would buy it with no doubt. Thanks in advance
I'll attach some pics guitar:

Hello! Larrivee makes many special editions so rarity has little influence on value. Maple is something some buyers are open to, and others stray away from. Right now, the guitar market is very poor so prices are down about 1/4 to 1/3 where they were 2 years ago.

 Condition is a big deal for guitars over 20 years old as the angle of the neck starts to shift. The guitar might look perfect, but could need a $600 neck reset just from natural settling. If it's in great shape, I'd expect anywhere from $1,800USD to $2,500. I list that wide range because $1,800 is what I'd expect to see it sell for within about a month of listing, but if there is someone who happens to have been looking for a maple OM09, they may pay a good amount for it. I'll be honest though, things are so tough that I've seen comparable value Larrivees selling for less than $1,800. So, so temper your expectations. With Larrivee, the used value is rarely representative of how good the instrument is so many people hang onto nice instruments like this. For $1,800 you could have a very average Martin or a very special Larrivee like this.

 Also, keep in mind, that's just my perspective. I do watch prices but the more unusual/special the item, the harder it is to predict what it will sell for.
