I don't think I'm bluemiata, but he might be an OFC brother in a nearby state. I sent a pm but havn't got a reply. but who know's, I'd hate to start bidding against myself. We all know what happened to Garth brooks. :confused:

"who's that Blue miata guy?"

That'd be me. Of course if I won this I'd have to part with a 1681-8. The 1681-5 would go good with the UTE.

If I were going after a 1681, I would definitly be going after this color scheme. Hope you get it Blues!

I was wondering how Ovation could verify the guitar without the serial number. :confused:

If anyone is bidding read the feedback and ask questions.

Looks like a really nice guitar

Now on Ebay Australia, starting at $1500 AUD ($1120 USD approx.)

Would be prepared to ship internationally to an OFC'er.

Hmmm, bidding is ended and all bids are gone. What's up with that?

To all the bidders on this item..UPON FURTHER INSPECTION WE FIND THIS GUITAR TO POSSIBLY BE A "PARTS" GUITAR. in other words, parts taken from the factory and then assembled outside the factory.. This was a common tactic in the early days of the factory. This is probably the reason for no sticker.. We are therefore cancelling this auction. Many apologies to all that bid we regret that we have to take this step, but to insure our future reputation as honest brokers, we have no other choice. Thanks for your understanding. Sincerely, Berkshire Guitar
...a common 'tactic' in the early days of the factory? Keller wasn't even there then!

Someone should contact them and find out if it's still for sale anyway.

Thanks John:
sheesh, i should of looked a bit closer.

That seems like an odd scenario. Was this really a common practice/tactic?

I've seen examples of it. Don't know how common it was, maybe CWK2 can shed some light.

I wonder if the seller will relist it? It is still a nice guitar. Maybe not worth as much, but still worth something.
