There's a BUNCH to be found here.
I personally own a '76 Custom Balladeer that's been my primary guitar since I bought it new.
It gets the piss beat out of it for four hours of heavy work every weekend (sometimes twice) and it still looks/sounds GREAT and keeps begging for more! Welcome!!! |

Location: Shelton, Washington, USA | i have a 78 1111-4. no guitar should be abused and neglected like i have that one over the years..... and it's still one of the best sounding guitars i've ever heard.... only good investment i ever made was that guitar |

GREAT GUITAR, i love the sound of it. Gotta refret it soon though, the e string often gets jammed behind the 4th fret :( |

Location: Hickory | I also have an Ovation Model #1111-4, serial#006097, but I can't find a date on it. I traded the guy at the flea market out of it in 1986, and its been so good I haven't been able to part with it since. Its been camping with us, and seen all kinds of abuse, but still looks and plays beautifully. I'll probably pass it on to one of my children... Thanks |

Location: Hickory | Thanx Paul,
Its good to know the date of manufacture. Is there a blue book value?? Maybe I should insure it incase of theft or fire.... |
