Location: South of most, North of few | The 1614 is my favorite right now also. Just keep an eye on the bay. That's where I got mine, and it was in new shape and at a good price. (and no, I won't let mine go..) |

Location: NJ | A couple years ago, there was a fleaBay auction where they were auctioning off Cat's ACTUAL guitar . . .
Came with certification and a Buddah/ChocolateBox sticker on the case. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | It wouldn't be fair to you if you paid me what it would take to get mine. 1977 and almost perfect condition. They are great guitars. Keep looking and maybe you'll find one that the owner doesn't appreciate. |

Thats the key, Mark. The one I bought had nylon strings on it because the owner thought, since it was a slothead, thats what it took. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | Jim, that's exactly my situation. A supposed luthier told the owner it was a nylon string guitar. He tried, but never even finished putting all the strings on. I bet he couldn't get the nylon ones to stop slipping. I cleaned it up, fixed a cracked brace and strung it with steels and it's wonderful. |

Location: Germany | guys ! I have one! Yes !!!
I found it at the german bay and I won it for 450 Euros.
Well, all in all I had to drive 700km to get it, but hey, its saturday and it was a really sunny day! A nice day for travelling the country on the Autobahn :-)
I will post pictures soon.
It is a 1981 made 1614 Ovation and it is in almost perfect shape! No cracks, no hairlines etc. The seller changed the Volume control and the strap pins to some after market chrome things. I will order original ones to build it back to the original shape just like 1981.
Mission accomplished - Chapter closed :-)

Location: South of most, North of few | VERY nice fguki!! I told you, just wait long enough, and it would happen. Welcome to the 12 fret, slot head, deep bowl club! :D
(now you just need an 1115 or a 1615 12 string) |
