QR Code Link to This Post
Perfect show-room condition.
This highly collectable guitar is from the late 1990’s. It is in absolute mint, like new condition. The sound is astounding, the best sounding guitar I have ever owned. The sound is balanced & clear with wonderful strong bases, complex mid-ranges and bright clear trebles. It has an “A-Grade” solid Sitka Spruce Top with a mid-size bowl depth. The Fingerboard is a beautiful two-tone Rosewod.
Serial # 518537 No wear on fingerboard, no cosmetic marks of any kind.
This is a rarely made “Cadillac Green” finish, a rare, sought after color used on select Ovation guitars, sometimes referred to as Cadillac Green Burst.
(It got its name from the classic Cadillac automobile color of the 1950s, a car that owner and founder Charles Kaman owned and loved.)
The guitar comes with the original OVATION Hard Shell Case, also in mint condition with a Grey padded plush interior.
CASH ONLY PLEASE
Thank You.
