Here is the best you can do:
Ovation Deacon Deluxe, aka Limited |

Ovation Deacon Delux 500 made
Is the one that they bought last Octiber for $700:
OVATION BREADWINNER 1256 LTD ELECTRIC GUITAR
But the Breadwinner Limited the Seller says to check out on Jerome's site is hanging up in my music room. The glamour pictures were taken by Craig Wilson:
Noah\'s Breadwinner Limited
I'm flattered, but if they miss the serial# difference, an eBay Buyer might think that the pictures on Jerome's site are of the guitar they are buying. |

"a picture of an ovation breadwinner Ltd. can be found at this web site",
in front of where they say, "check it out here...". |

Well, all three of you have a nice guitar...
Before I had a digital camera I used my Pentax K1000 35mm and scanned the pictues. The other choice was to plagarize.
I strongly dislike pilferred pictures in an auction. |

Mahogany Deacon
Here's an expensive one in the U.K., and the auction is almost over. If you need it white, just hold out - they come up on ebay every 2 or 3 weeks or so.

Location: SoCal | I looked at that mahogany Deacon. There's something not right about the neck. It doesn't have binding and the headstock looks like a Viper's with the maple neck. |

Location: Upper Left USA | That is an odd neck but I haven't seen the Diamond/Deacon inlays on anythingbut a Deacon.
If it were Viper scale the bridge would be adjusted 1/4" back further.
It needs a nice figured Walnut PG... |
