Hi everybody,
It's a real pleasure to inform you that the Ovation 1776 Patriot Serial# 1727 is in my sweet home in France !!
I'm very happy and this babe is already on the wall with the others between my Adamas II and my Collector's 2003. A good place!!
I'm gonna take care of it for a long time.
It's really a very nice and very good instrument!!!
Like always with Ovation's guitars...

Jérôme,

It is a wonderful guitar...I have # 320 (a/e); of course, we know where # 1 and # 76 are.

Is this an a/e? About 10% of the 1,776 produced were a/e.

Jerome,
Way to go, I am happy for you. I think anyone who puts that much effort into a website deserves good tiding to come their way. Actually I hereby nominate you to set up the adamas website. Now that you're a patriot, I think it's safe to entrust you with the national secrets in the archives. peace mike

Tony,

This one is an acoustic only.
Another good news, the #15 is also in France.
I've played on it 3 weeks ago. An acoustic only too. She belong to my friend Philippe.

According to Vintage guitar magazine #1 & #76 are for sale at Kummers Vintage in Fl, along with a bunch of Adamii. Looks like I'm not the only one having a clear-out
