Hi Folks

EDIT: I have now consolidated the Serial Number List and the entry form on one page:

Larrivée Serial Numbers

Please use the link above.



I just created an  online  form for serial numbers

Serial Number Entry Form

You can fill in your serial number and other data there.

After you have done that you can view all the entries here:

Larrivée Serial Numbers



PLEASE let me know if I left out any options and I will change the form. Okay?

Okay folks - please let me know what you think.

I clicked on the Larrivee Serial Number link and it says that I don't have permission to view the spreadsheet?????

Look for  the serial number on the inside of the guitar on block at the base of the neck.

Did you find it?

Like ST said.  The long number will be the serial# and the short code will be the model line (e.g. 03 for your L-03)

Entered what I knew - and screwed up the date entry format - Sorry - Those are the only dates I got from Larrivee, and if they didn't indicate otherwise, I assumed it was the start date.

Now I have a reason to request the date info on my other guitars - Hadn't really cared too much before -

Thanks for starting this ST!

Bunch of Larrivees - all good -
and a wife that still puts up with me, which is the best -

Ya I found it thanks. The model code 03 in on the top though.

Does the ser# reflect the manufacture date by any chance?

What if the model # and serial# are all one? How about (10)1614? or what? Need to make sure everyone knows that's how they used to do it.
10-1614 more than a number, it's body and soul.

Hi flatlander,

I'm not sure how to make sure everyone knows.

I have added this text to the introduction.

Find the serial number on the inside of the guitar on block at the base of the neck.
Typically this will appear as two lines.
The top line (usually one or two characters) is part of the model number.
The second line is the serial number


I have added some more prompts for the dates too.

You can check these out here.

If you can think of a better way to put this, please let me know.

Hi Tad,

No worries - I fixed up the date format.

Does anyone have a good photo of the neck block showing his/her serial number?

I'll add this to the Larrivée Serial Numbers web page


Gee ... if only Larrivee would put the date of manufacture along with the serial .... ??? Not rocket science but it sure would have provided some great information since it seems most folks want to know when their guitar was made? Are they doing it now ..... nope? One asks the question?

Here is  one

L-03 BlackWood..... "Pluck"
OM-03- MT Forum #14/17
F-III IS/Hog #63/78....SOLD
Seagull Artist Folk
Pono and Kanile'a Tenor Ukulele's
The real Day Sailer...1966 Day Sailer..the boat, not the person

Thanks Roger,

Another great picture. I'll figure out how to use it and post a link in a few minutes.

Whoever has 1518   Can you tell me what your confidence level is on date? Mine is 1614. When I talked to them on phone way, way back they told me it is was built in Jan 81. A few years ago I sent e-mail and they replied it was started in Dec 80' . I got it like Feb 81 and I know it came straight from factory to dealer opening new shop. If you are pretty sure about yours I'll put 01/81 for mine as well. No biggie it'd just be good to have a linear thing going on.
10-1614 more than a number, it's body and soul.

So, my OM-03RE has the serial number on the Neckblock as well as the soundhole label.  (I think my 12 sting does as well)  The serial number is not exactly identical, one is 6 digits long the other is 8.  only difference is the presence of two leading zeros.

Which SN should I enter?
