I have an ovation 12 string acoustic guitar model 1115-4. I bought it in 1975 and it is in mint condition. Does anyone know what this guitar is worth. It has a great sound and an easy action on the strings. I paid $395 for this guitar back in 1975.

Just saw one in a pawn shop, but when I saw all the finish cracks I didn't even look at the price tag.

this guitar is posted in the gallery under ovation pacemaker guitar. It was purchased in 1975 and the guitar is in mint condition. The case has a bad handle and some loose trim. It is non-electric. Has a beautiful tone.

Looks lovely. Good luck. :)

31 years - that really will be losing an old friend.

Beautiful guitar. It may be the nicest one I've seen! Wish I had some extra cash! Good luck!

Well, let's see if Toby is sighted playing the critter, at some point! Networking, and politicking.

Toby plays takamine guitars so you probably won't be seeing him with an ovation. He probably gets his guitars free.

". . Tak, Ovation - same family . ."

ehhhhh . . . yeah, . . . "by marriage".

Kinda like if your uncle re-married . . . to some hot, Japanese bim "trophy" wife . . . .


Isn't Toby the guy that plays the Japanese-made guitar with the custom USflag paintjob on it?? Or am I thinking of somebody else?? They all look alike. . . . .

Toby is the singer with the flag painted takamine. It is a $4000 custom guitar. Talking about high priced but i guess it doesn't matter if you had his money
