| Wow, very rare!
I've got it on my watch list (I'm dreaming..)
I wonder how it compares to the 1758?
Capo Guy, check it out!... |

| I'll predict buy-it-now will end the auction early.
Ovation didn't make many of these. This is 'beyond collectible'. |

Location: Germany | The look of the sunburst 1538 is stunning. I purchased mine (near mint condition) one year ago for $1000 from an OFC member.
I love 12-stringers and I always wanted two of them: A carbon-top Adamas 1688 and a wood-top 1538. Different sounds which complement each other.
Someone here should grab it. You won't regret it.

I'd love to be able to a/b them...can't see how it could be better than this 12 string...
This is the finest I've played: better than my original...
Still, best wishes to whomever gets it! |

It's a rare and so nice guitar.
Surely one of the nicest Ovation 12S ever built.
