I have a 2000LTD-MR Ovation Elite that was sold as "The Czar Guitar" due to the 300 year old Russian walnut top that was used on it. The wood supposedly came from the private collection of the Russian Czar. I believe that there was a very limited number of them made. Does anyone have any idea what it is worth and also what is the best oil/polish to use on the neck (satin finish)and the top (high polish).Thanks for any help anyone could offer.

Thanks for the feedback on the 2000LTD. I'm just going on what the paperwork said that came with the guitar...came with a sample of caviar as well (really). Of course that is Ovation,first class all the way. Being new to this site, I explored some of the past subjects and saw that the recommended polishes for these guitars was either the Dunlop or the Martin guitar polish so I assume that is still the case.I don't play well but still want to take care of the guitar finish.Thanks again.

Dunlop is the way to go. He's got to help support Loby Dozer and keep him in feed for the winter.
