Location: Boise, Idaho | The $200 Balladeer on Portland craigslist is still available as far as I know. Have at it. It was too plain for my daughter and she doesn't think she can justify two guitars. She gets that crap from her mother. Anyway it looked like a nice deal for somebody. |

Location: Foothills of Mt. Rainier | Hey everybody,
Seems like lots of folks read this forum and I have had a couple of interesting emails concerning Balladeers and some other Ovations that I might need. One was described as a natural colored top, deep bowl and slotted headstock and was in nice shape for $150 or best offer. That sure sounds interesting...I must learn more about the various models...that one has the truss rod cover also. More later,
Bob |

Location: Boise, Idaho | Start doing your research, Bob. A deep bowl slothead would probably be a Folklore, unless it was made in Korea. Nylon string would be a Classic. As my wife said, "My God, how many models did they make?" If you can get a Folklore for $150 and it doesn't have cracks in the top, buy it. Otherwise, go for that Balladeer in Portland. Or better yet, do both. Two guitars for the price of a cheap one. |

Location: Foothills of Mt. Rainier | Hey Guys,
I am the new guy here and I only have nine guitars...I better get some more if I am going to hang with this crew. I play everyday for the joy of it so more tools just makes it better. Thanks for the good advice.

Location: Boise, Idaho | You're doing pretty well, Bob. Maybe Art should get that Balladeer to replace the one he sold. I just noticed you have another one, though. |
