Location: big island | just spoke with the owner. there is some binding missing on the treble side as can be seen in the pic. there are three small finish cracks (2 lower bout and 1 just under the bridge treble side). case is worn but functional. model 1111-4 acoustic. |

Location: big island | the case is not an ovation one. the owner says there is someone supposed to buy it this afternoon (hawaii time) but it is still available at the moment. |

| There is the BY-God perfect camping/beach guitar. Grab it. Case is almost worth that if it is good.

Location: Boise, Idaho | If something like this comes up again, PM me. We could probably work a trade, like dinner on the big island when we come over. I'm sure you could come up with some interesting Hawaiian ideas for bartering. |

Location: big island | heh, heh...the seller just emailed me to say she and her husband decided to do some "O" investigating and have now increased their asking price to $350.00. she edited the listing to reflect the new price and details. |

Location: big island | got another email from the seller telling me someone who saw the ad called her and told her she was selling way too cheap and that a similar model/condition on eBay goes for around $350.00
i guess i am glad that someone is looking out for the brand. perhaps aloha_tim called her... ;) |

Location: Boise, Idaho | The internet makes it difficult to find these great deals. $350 would take a lot more bartering, Lanaki, and I don't want any more kids. |

The Ute is on my list as well. But I'd probably prefer the 12 string version. Anyone know when these will be available?
