Location: South of most, North of few | Just got this one cause I couldn't get past the burst and the condition of the guitar. This guitar has ZERO, 0, nada, fret wear. It was filthy with dust when I got it (think it had the original strings on it!) and I spent nearly an hour cleaning it up, oiling the fret board, restringing it, new battery, etc... The tuners could use a removal to clean them up correctly. Electronics (OP24) work fine. Two VERY small issues, (and that's being picky) a small scratch on the bonnet of the head stock, and a pinpoint ding on the lower bout (see pics). Absolutely perfect other than that. I believe it's a 1991 vintage. Did I mention the burst? This is one beautiful piece of real estate. Comes with Ovation hard case, shipped, insured (conn US) to your door for 550.00
Pic of the scratch...
...and of the ding...(yes, it's that little white spot)

The more I see these burst guitars the more they grow on me.
Good luck with the sale. |
