Location: Ogden, UT | Hi,
I am new to Ovation and to this bullentin board but I have been watching for a couple of weeks and learning about these great guitars. My local dealer has a very limited selection of Ovations. Nothing nice at all.
I have decided on what I want - a folklore, steel string, like an 1114 or 1614. I'm interested in the wide nut width. Sunburst would be nice, but not necessary.
Does anyone have such a guitar they could offer? Or if not, could you help me in my search with what kind of price I would be looking at. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Location: ms | One of the cracks is into the wood, several surface cracks. Guitar plays and sounds good. I traded it in on a Breedlove. If your interested the owner of the stores name is Robbie, give him a call i think he will take less for it. |

Location: Ogden, UT | Thanks for this reference. How worried would any of you be about the crack in the wood?
Another thing, I have read on this board about a guy named Al who does a lot of dealings with ovations and people on this board. Would it be worth my while to call Al?
Thanks |
