1998 Larrivée LV-09 Natural Acoustic Guitar, Serial #25844.
1998 Larrivée LV-09 Acoustic Guitar in Natural finish, Serial #25844. This cutaway model features premium walnut back and sides paired with a tight-grained spruce top. Elegant appointments include flamed maple binding and a multi-colored abalone rosette. There is a hairline crack on the top near the fingerboard, and the binding at the end of the fingerboard has come loose (the original piece is included in the case and can be reglued).
Original hard case included. Condition: Very Good.

The LV-09 is a standout in Larrivée's lineup, blending high-quality tonewoods with refined craftsmanship. The walnut back and sides give the guitar a warm, focused tone with strong midrange response, while the spruce top adds clarity and articulation. The flamed maple binding and abalone rosette provide tasteful visual flair without overshadowing the instrument's clean design. Built in the late 1990s-a period celebrated for Larrivée's consistent build quality-this example offers great potential with only minor repair needs. Whether for restoration or regular play, the LV-09 remains a well-crafted instrument from one of North America's most respected acoustic builders.
