Great Thread!!! I play Larrivees and I've got four; L 19, D 19 (maple body), OM 10, and a L 10 12 string (which I'm currently trying to sell, great guitar just don't play it anymore and don't want it wasted.) I love the sound, especially for a singer. They're the best accompanying guitars I've ever played. (And yes I did own a D 28 for about 15 years) For banjos I play a Wildwood open back and a Bacon and Day Silver Bell. I use Calton cases ( I fly a lot and they've done the job for me) with Small Dog case covers. Guitars are a joy. Dan
