I know without looking what this is. That's one sweet, sweet guitar. I want one big time. Unfortunately now is not that time. I played one at a dealer. MAN OH MAN. Enjoy it!

Yes they are pretty.
Not quite my cup of Snapple but I guess I need to play one before I can say that with full confidence. Was just working out a tune on the 75, had to put the blewgrass360 down for a bit.

From the pics, it looks to have X bracing.

Ok -- just go here

Looks like x-bracing to me, but i'm not a luthier, nor very knowledgeable on the subject.

Only problem i have with the guitar is that it didn't come with the legendary pizza box packing.

Great guitar GH1....I love mine. The Koa on the 417 is really a different color from any other guitar I own and appears to be quite a bit different than the Ovation Koa special that Al put out.

The top on mine has some wicked bear claw marks than are quite distinctive. I really need to break out the camera and snap some photos.

Enjoy...it is a fun guitar that sounds amazing.
