Location: Ottawa, Canada | I hate to do this but things have gone pretty bad in the finance dept. I have to sell some guitars. I have a near mint 1983, 1537 in Black, you guys know these are pretty rare. Comes with an Ovation case. Everything is pretty much like new on this with the exception of some very minor pick scratching, barely visible. I will post pics later today. Asking 1200.00 plus shipping. Reasonable offers will be entertained.
I made a contribution to the site via paypal. |

A -5 is pretty rare. I think yours is the only one I've ever seen. |

A -5 is pretty rare. I think yours is the only one I've ever seen. Yes, the seller called me yesterday...I hadn't seen this thread...as I said, it's a long story...
The only other one I have seen in -5 was a pic of Steve Sutton (Debanjo) playing one...I'm sure there are others... |

| Better a blue one, eh?
Someone needs to buy this. 1537s are stonking great guitars, and the -5s are very rare. |

Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | As Stewart says, "The Deal did not go through"...since neither he or I have gone into details, just let it drop. Better yet, buy his guitar!
Insinuation without facts is speculation at best: it's not warranted and it's wrong. What you think you know is simply not fact. So, step up: a fantastic guitar is for sale and Stewart needs to get the most from his sale. The guitar is worth it... |
