Does anyone know where I can get info specific to this model?
Like full specs on materials used, ie: nut & saddle material and the like.

You can start at the OvationGuitars.com website. Check the archives/discontinued guitars... then on to Jerome's site...

For some of us, it may be the end of a journey, coming full circle. My first "good" Ovation was a 1978 Legend. In reality, it sounds like crap, very plastic in the bass. But I'm going to send it to Ovation and have a new acoustic only body put on the neck. A braced, good wood on top, hand laid bowl, and a 5 point rosewood bridge.

And as far as I can tell, that may be my last Ovation. I've got everything I could ever ask for....

Those are famous, not so last, words. I never thought I would say this, but I've suddenly taken an interest in wood-backed guitars.
