I am looking for an Ovation Elite 1718. Probably from the 1980's.It had a deep bowl, and graphic eq.(Bass treble volume controls.)
The one I had had a center hole (They no longer have the center hole for some reason)where the battery was housed. It did not have a built in tuner.
Does anyone have info where I can get another one?

Yes, the centre sound hole was discontinued right after you died.

Glad to see you're back in the building.

Elites don't have center holes, unless you're talking about the access hole in the back of the bowl.

About the best you can do is watch ebay. They show up there all the time.....

Sorry, but I have one that does have a center hole, and it says in the bowl ....Elite 1718.
I know the newer ones do not.

Then it's mislabeled. Elites never ever had round center holes. By definition, they are multi hole guitars, no exceptions.

Post a pic and we'll tell you what you've got...
