A friend of mine gave it to me years ago, and it's been in my closet ever since. I'm an acoustic player; I don't even own an amp. I play a black Ovation Legend 2077AX.

Any information about this electric?

Actually, this would have been early 1980 at the end of the run based on:

  • Control layout
  • The later version of the bridge
  • No "Viper" engraved on the pickguard
  • color
