There is an Ovation 12 string listed on eBay. web page

The seller first said it was a "12 STRING BALLADEER DEEP BOWL MODEL 1112". Then he changed the model to a 1151. The seller e-mailed me saying the inside label says it's a 1151.

I'm new to Ovations and cannot find any reference to a model 1151, and my research shows the model 1112 to be a 6-string. Boy am I confused.

Can someone help clarify this for me. Thanks in advance.

1151 shows up as a Standard Balladeer, made in the mid nineties with an original list price of $899. The s/n puts it at 95/96.

Look closely at the picture of the headstock of this guitar. Doesn't it look like the gap where the two piece neck is joined looks kinda wide? I am looking at the area around the Ovation logo. Usually the gap is hard to see, could this neck be separating where the two pieces of mahogany are joined? I don't know, it could just be me being paranoid again. What do you think?
