To find out how old it is, go to the reference link on this website and check out your serial number for the model you have. It's worth what someone else is willing to pay at the time, but you'd need to give more information, such as the condition its in (e.g. brand new, as new, good condition, well used, some problems, major problems etc.)

I just looked it up on Ovation's website and you have a legend limited:


I tried to insert a picture here from their website, but it didn't appear to work in the preview. Try this link Legend Ltd

If you added a "1776-1976" sticker to the face it would be worth even more

The Legend Limiteds were made in 1981 and possibly part of 1982. Nice model. I bought mine new in 1981. John Lennon used one on his acoustic album so when Ovation produced reissues in 2004, they became popularly known as the John Lennon Reissue.

there's an excellent 1651 (original) in the medford, oregon craigslist. the seller tells me he also owns a brazilian taylor 810 but in the past few days has been liking the sound of the 1651 better and is now considering selling the taylor instead. we are not surprised, are we? anyway, i have invited mike to join us here. perhaps he will...
