Location: South of most, North of few | Ol. I've been kicking this idea around for a while, but every time I play it I renig on the idea. Now for sale, an as new 30th CM with one of the nicest bear claw top you've seen on an O, bling bling, blah blah, you all know the details. with 9158 case of course. 1150.00 shipped Conn US. I'll be bringing it to the jam if anyone is interested, and we can cut 50 bucks off the price. Catch me in a moment of weakness, cause after the jam, I may decide to keep it...

Location: SoCal | Boy, I"m tempted on this. I'm going to spend almost this much money on a rebuild of an existing guitar. I've got Noah's 30th CL and I can tell you that they are outstanding guitars. This is one of the best two or three wood topped Ovations I've ever played. Somebody should pick this up before TJ flip flops again........ |

1) TJ doesn't sell it at the jam;
2) TJ does sell it at the jam; or
3) TJ sells it at the jam, has seller's remorse and tries to/does buy it back. |

Hopefully by this time I'll have the $ to buy his second one. ;) |

Location: South of most, North of few | Brings up a funny story: When the Josh White came in, my wife was in the shower. I took the box from the UPS guy and opened it, took the guitar out of the case, hung it on the wall and put the box in the attic before she even saw what was happening. When I brought the 1768 home two days later, I just walked past her with the case and hung the guitar next to the Josh on the "man cave" wall. No resistance. I think she's given up. ;) |

I switched hangers and the deal is done. I will be taking it to the jam, but it should be coming back home with me. In other words, for now, it's off the block. Sorry for the confusion, but it comes with the territory... :p :rolleyes: |

But if a nice UK II comes along.... contact slydog... he has a nice brownburst UKII in vgc. and a Tornado in natural(mothership fresh restoration and rewire), a sunburst viper with filtertrons and adjustable brass nut, and the only one I know of that's been done in a very nice nitrocellulose finish. and a black breadwinner in excellent condition, and an ULTRA GS strat style in black w/3 pickup with kahler flyer.
all reasonable offers considered.

Though, I've always lusted after a late model UKII in white. |
