Looks to be in OK shape, but the photos aren't great. About half the price of what it was new. |

Tim In Tidewater's is pretty awesome and I know they are expensive.....so maybe this is a deal! |

I've only seen pics of Tim's, but it looks to be in really good shape. |

Location: Tidal Mudflats of Virginia | 99.9% sure that is Steve Frangadakis from onelightburning.com former custom-made DN#21. He paid $7K to have it made in 1992 and sold it to someone in Scotland back around 2003. Steve's was a one-off because of the carved bridges and the OP24 is correct. The star was an inlay instead of a stickon like RS used on many of his.
I've exchanged emails Steve several times back in 2006 when I first picked up mine from Darren Seu in Hawaii.
I turned down $12K for mine back in 2009, so yes, a heck of a deal...

That said, I'd LOVE to have a USA doubleneck. We'll have to get together next time I'm out that way Tim. I'd love to see yours... Along with the rest of your stunning instruments. |

Here is Steve Frangadakis with Doubleneck #21

That reminds me, I should release that thing from it's case. It's been some time since I've given it any love. |

Location: Canada | Hello all fellow Ovation fans..so I just recieved my very rare # 21 1992 (solid top custom shop Richie Sambora doubleneck). The guitar is awesome except there is a problem. The top (on the 12 string side) between the bridge and neck has "sunk". I am guessing tuned to high and maybe not enough humidity control on the guitar. My question to anyone out there that might have had this happen..maybe on a 12 string...can this be fixed?...its kinda heartbreaking...please if anyone has had a similar experience please reply,Tanks...Greg |
