i e-mailed Brian T. for the production date of my OM-09 and their records show it was issued a serial number (4XXXX) at the start of production in March 2001...i have no idea how Larrivee issues ser. no. between their various models but it looks like yours may be several years older than mine...

If you email him, he gets back to you within a day or so, and doesn't seem to mind.

I have emailed Brian and will likely hear back from him by the end of the day......I am guessing it's mid-90's or so.......not to beat a dead dog (I had commented last week on how much I liked my new OM-09 (I have had three of these, but this one is quite special)  I am kind of thinking about a Mahogany L now to compliment the OM rosewood for recording......I thought maybe an older one may have mellowed a little more....the newer ones can be a little bright and thin.....

I know I've seen it in another thread, but I'm too lazy to look. Is it an older OM-09? My OM-09K is 1995, and I love it! The rosewood binding really complements the red in the koa, and I like the lack of dots on the face of the fretboard.

nope, OM-09 is a new CA model....I am looking at an L-05 that is older......

I bought my L10 new in 1982. Just for the hell of it I emailed Matthew L. my serial #  and asked him when it was made. His answer was that the factory at that time was in the process of moving to Vancouver from Victoria and he could only guess it to be from 1984.

So to answer your question fitness1 a "rough estimate" is likely what you'll receive.
