| Hi,
a little over a day to go at $2150 buy it now.
I am pretty sure they will take offers north of $1800 for it.
I have played it (and owned it.. :rolleyes: ) and it is clean and sounds great. Just did not fall in love with it.

Nice to 'meet' you. I will presume the guitar is in 'mint' condition unless you write otherwise. Please email me as to how much you'd accept for her, with the original, appropriate case, etc. I'm not good at this auction stuff. In this sale, what is meant by "import"? For some reason I thougt all collector's editions were made in Connecticut. ;) |

| Hi,
Yes it is mint. Not sure where you say import but it is made in the USA.
$1800 plus shipping
I would do it thru my local store since they can ship and take credit cards.
Let me know

| Hi,
On alot of my guitars I put a clear pick guard.
That might be the edge of it, can't remember if I put on on this or not.
I will look on Monday and post back.

| Hi,
I went to the store and what looked like a crack was just a reflection. There is no crack in the top and no clear pickguard either.
I have photos on my iphone that I can email if you want proof positive.
I posted a sound clip up to my myspace music page

It is the clip called 2009 Ovation fkoa

Location: GATLINBURG TENNESSEE :) | I know ... I am doing all I can to resist another purchase at the moment. I really like the looks of that flag CL thats up for sale. I may pull the trigger on it and then I'd have to decide on which one goes out the door. If I won the auction, I think I'd have to part with the acoustic elite bass. Hopefully down the road I'll have another chance at the 1009 Collectors. |

Will, thank you for a wonderful transaction. Like I told Patch, I hope you'll put me on your 'possible buyers' list next time you have another gem like this to sell. My thanks to Andy, too.
As you know by now, I got her yesterday, . The photos you provided didn't even do her justice, and neither does the photo I posted. She looks as good or better than I have seen on the web. The abalone & tortoise shell purfling is stunning! My eyes hurt from looking at my beautiful guitars! sorry, but they DO! Gorgeous, comfortable, perfectly set up, heavier than I expected, but in a good way ...
B E A U T Y, T O N E &
Q U A L I T Y.
One of these days I'll get me one a them there Adamas geetars ... and THEN I'll stop this madness.
A perfect transaction! Happy, happy, happy ... now I'd better go practice my guitar ...
Oh, and here's her photo:

By the time I realized my mistake, it was too late to edit the post. Sorry. BTW, the other photo is of the 1119-4 I bought from Patch. |
