Location: Louisville, OH 44641 | There aren't very many FD-14's out there and this one is in pristine condition. This was the guitar I thought was going to help me learn finger picking. Unfortunately, it's been an exercise in frustration rather than music for me. So I haven't been playing it very much. Comes with a nice Ovation case as well. Price = $1475 + 1/2 of shipping fees (about $25). See the attached photos and let me know if you're interested.
Thanks.

If I had any regrets out of all of the 1537s , CL's, etc sold over the years, the FUD is probably the one I should have kept.
Very reasonable asking price. |

Location: Muenster/Germany | My only chance to survive is to let one guitar go if I go for a new one. This is another wonderful instrument at a very reasonable price, but can anyone give me an advice which of mine I should give up? Sometimes it was very hard to decide. |

And about my ´82 collector...this guitar was recently extensively re-built by John Budny and looks like new,plays and feels great, I love the sound of the old A-braced guitars. If I would give this away I surely would go for an old custom legend soon, I´m sure.

Location: Munich, Germany | Well, the decision is very easy:
Do you have a slothead Ovation already? No.
Do you have a 1 3/4 neck Ovation already? No.
Do you have a natural top Ovation already? Probably, but let's say: No.
Do you have one with a tortoise rosette and very special binding? No.
Do you... No!
That's how I always ask myself before adding a new guitar to the herd, and it always helps to let me buy it. Without letting another one go.
Best regards,
Kurt |

Hmmm,
Yes (3)
Yes (Same 3)
Does an Al Pep Koa count? Technically it is a natural top.
Yes (That Koa again).
Can I get this past SWMBO? Not right now.
Stop teasing me. Somebody buy this already. |

Location: Louisville, OH 44641 | Stephent, I know you're right about that. Still, let me try to make this as painless as possible for our OFC members. I know there are several that are on the fence. Let me offer it up this way:
- Make 3 payments (1 per month) of $492
- This totals $1476
- I'll pack your FD-14 away and never play it again after I receive your first payment
- I'll pick up the shipping in the Continental US
- Overseas and Canadian shipments will have to be quoted.
That's as easy as I can make it for our members. This is the type of guitar you can't just give away but you can make it a little bit easier to buy.

Let me know if you're interested!
Thanks.

I would like to sell my FD14, but will probably keep it.
They seem to be difficult to move for such a stellar instrument. |
