Here we have an "Ovation Custom Shop" (hmmm... I was just there - I don't remember seeing a 'custom shop'...) S/S Elite LX .

NEW! RARE! HARD TO FIND!

FRG s/s Custom Elite C868LX.... $2000???

Is it just me, or does that seem a little high?

I'm not totally sure about this, but didn't Ovation recently discontinue (US made) super shallow bowls? That might explain the "custom shop" designation. If that's an FRG, then yes, I think $2000 is a bit high, IMHO.

Mandoweb has them new for $1099. That sounds about right.

The jacks on the guitar are on the back, not in the new position by the endpin. That might explain the "custom shop" designation.

Paul, All SS guitars with 1/4 and XLR outputs have jacks located on the back. The circuit card that houses the jacks is too big to fit on the end pin area of a SS body. Dave

PS - Yes I also think $2000. is a tad high, but I hope he gets it. Very nice guitar. And I have bought from BB in the past and he's a pretty nice dealer.
