Location: big island | This 1655 12 String/Serial # 298816 looks very nice.
Can you seasoned O pros tell me what it might be worth? I have the opening bid on it.

And, yeah, it's driving me crazy. |

Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR | How much will it go for? If I don't bid on it, it'll go for $355 ($400 total).
Why? Because I could swing that, maybe.
If I was trying for it, $755!
But Go For It! Cuz I won't be bidding on this one. |

Location: Upper Left USA | A Music Store intervention for me is:
Not being able to keep your mouth shut when you hear the Salesperson give bad info about an Ovation product.
Not being able to keep your mouth shut when the Salesperson doesn't give ANY information about an Ovation product.
Volunteering (prior to eye contact) information about the Ovation products to your fellow Customers.
Dropping names like Rick Hall and "John" and "Kim" when you discuss the products with a Customer, Salesperson and especially a Store Manager.
Correcting anyone in the store about the difference between Deep, Mid, Artist, Super Shallow and Contour Bowls.
Tuning the Ovations you aren't even playing. Extra points for detuning another brand!
Pointing out to the Manager (for the third year in a row) that someone has swapped an OP 10 for the OP 30 that belongs in the 2003 Collector that is still priced too high.
Find yourself being asked if you are the sales help because you have been giving instructions on how to operate the tuners and preamp settings as well as pulling every O and A off the shelf to have someone compare or close their eyes while you play the 1778T and the Martin.
Starting a sentence with "At the Factory they said..." or "Out of the three Slotheads I've played and the three reissues I think that..."!
And let us not forget, thanking the Sales staff for stocking the O's and A's they have or for knowing their product so well.
These are my transgressions and I submit myself to the judgement of the board... |

To get back on topic, this 12 string is a powerhouse of tone and technology. Very underated.
They haven't been going over $500 but Ebay is the serendipitous collision of Wanters and Havers. |

Lanaki - if you get it, lemme know what you think of it, and how it compares to your other O's, OK?
Thanks, Tom |
