Hello everyone! I've gotten a few emails from Musician's Friend and Music123 about their closeout on the LX series Ovation Guitars. And I want to get one. I think I want a 2778. I have never ordered a guitar online before and I'm a bit leary of it. I went to Guitar Center, and they won't match the online price from these guys ($799).

Anyone ever have any trouble ordering online sight unseen before? Any other places/people I should check?

Thanks for any insight - I'm itching to pull the trigger on one!

Call Al at Lost Art Vintage. Lost Art Vintage

Al can meet or beat most on-line prices, but more importantly he checks every guitar before it's shipped.

I use musicians friend alot, sweetwater. And have always had good luck. It seems like some of the places are not having a sale on some of the LX series, so shop around and shop fast. I say stick to the big stores but there is one guy I see on here alot and can't recall his name, It sounds like he does really good ovation business. I ordered the last black LX baladeers from musicians friend on two different models. They have always been good with returning items, I have never had to pay return shipping or anything even on heavy amps. Can't guarantee the same results for you. Good luck and I think if you are thinking about one get a USA model while you can.

And he is one of the 2 moderators of this board!

Don't putz around if you really want an Ovation at these prices; they're flying out the doors. Once they're gone you'll be getting the lower-priced models from Korea.
