Decided to sell my Elite 1778T and thought I'd run it up the flagpole here before going the eBay/Craigslist route.

This is the pewter (gray) version of Ovation's 'nonskid' line. It was made in 2005, I am the second owner, and it is in beautiful condition with no flaws. These feature OP-30 pickups with built-in tuners (now everybody tunes to ME, very handy), and a rock maple neck that is about the nicest neck I've ever played, with action more reminiscent of an electric. The guitar sounds incredible and was recently voted on this forum as the 'best bang for the buck' of any Ovation. Reason I'm selling is to, yup, finance another Ovation.

I'm asking $500, and that includes shipping to the lower 48 as well as a nice hardshell case. See photos at my gallery on this site under 'Oddball' Elite T.

For some reason when I see that model I'm reminded of the obelisk in "2001: the Space Odyssey".

If I hadn't ordered the SW 'T', this would be very tempting! Nice git...

Probably the featureless, non-reflective surface. It is a very cool look...

Hey Oddball:
I'll ask a friend of mine about your T. He has a son that wants to buy an Ovation and this certainly looks like a good place to start. It looks like your guitar is in great shape.

I wish it were a black one, though the pewter does look nice in the photos.

Among the T top finishes this is the one I prefer. Nice guitar indeed. Good luck for the sale.

Oddball ,

I didn't mean to hi-jack your thread. My bad!

But Riccardo has just celebrated his 50th year in this plane of existence, plus he has a birthday present on the way...

As I said before, if I didn't have the SW 'T' on the way, this offer would be over...!
