I'm in the market for my first Ovation, a 1271 Viper, so if anyone knows about one that's for sale or has one they're looking to sell I'd be very interested. It doesn't have to be in mint condition or anything, I'm just looking for a good player. I actually prefer guitars with some character. I have about $400 to spend, so if anyone is looking to unload one of their 'extra' Viper's they'll be helping make an Ovation fan out of me.

"Good player" pretty well sums up a Viper. They are great fun. Good luck.

The Red ones are very rare... and because they are red you can play faster riffs on them.

AJ needs a friend with a private jet to take his collection to Oz.
