Location: Tampa, FL | I spoke with the owner, and I'm headed over there tomorrow to look at the guitar (because I can't get a hold of a forum member here to send him a check for a guitar that I want). I asked what the model number is and she told me the guitar doesn't have a sticker. Then I asked what is the serial number on the back and she said there isn't one.
So, which O came from the factory this way? If none, how can I find out the serial number and model? It has an OP-24 pup. She sounds very legitimate. Her dad bought her the guitar a couple years ago. He bought it used. It comes with an Ovation hardshell case.

Plus for $300, it looks like a cs257 to me :(
and maybe a nicer pre-amp, but I'm not sure... |

Now that you mention it, the end of the fretboard is totally different from one to the other. Celebrity to Elite. :eek: |

What type of O is this? No label and no serial number!
