Location: Upper Left USA		Not an Ovation but a very unique design and look.

This is a Nylong strung Giannini Craviola Classical with cardboard case. The only mod I made was to put on a set of Straplocs and to adjust it.
This one was made 7/1975 and has a solid top.
Some small dings and some "dungs" at the headstock backside as pictured.

It sounds and plays great and will turn eyes.
The prices for these on Ebay are all over the place but this one is really clean and a Nylon strung.
I'm saying $425 shipped in the 48 US.

Gee Woody... I just bought a 2078T and an iDea preamp (with a guitar attached).

As soon as I bought them you come out with these wonderful guitars.
Do you have spyware in my PayPal account that alerts you when the account is freshly emptied? :p

Just curious, not that serious. What's the nut width and scale length? Will it balance on your knee without a strap?

Location: Upper Left USA		Nut is 1 7/8" and the scale measures 25 3/8".

The guitar is very light and although the Tuners don't seem heavy it tends to want to drop that way.

Fits sweetly if you cross your Left leg over your right.
