Location: Gig Harbor, Washington | Some would call this a "beach guitar" due to the cracks & chip, but if you played it (with your eyes closed and your ears wide open) - you'd think this was a guitar priced at 3 - 5 times the price!
It's listed on craigslist & ebay classified as well. For simplicity, here's the link to craigslist:
Ovation #1616 @ CraigsList
And of course, a big shout out to the WoodyMan for his kind assistance breathing some newer life into this one as well...
Imagine if we had a special photo gallery of all the guitars that Mike's had a hand in tweaking on over these many years of OFC'g...now there's an idea for next years calendar!
Asking only $350 plus actual shipping charges (will consider personal delivery as well!). Seriously, this is a really nice playing classical, and though she's not so pretty to look at, she sure has got the tone and the action! If you've ever wanted a nylon O' but haven't added one, or if you've always wanted an O' you could take anywhere (the beach, the cabin, or the roller-derby bar!) this may be your perfect chance!
Shoot me a call or an email if you have further questions or need additional pic's.

Location: Cicero, NY | Great guitar. My first O and, despite wanting and getting a steel string, one I couldn't let go for about 25 years.
Good luck on the sale. |

Location: Texas | Suh-weet! Congrats MisterG! You even managed to keep the WA/TX guitar-karma in balance… although there are 12 strings headed your way and only 6 headed mine… You better send me another of your 6-strings to be sure to maintain the proper equilibrium…
I'm really looking forward to the arrival of the 1616 next week… I've been tracking it's slow crawl southeastward, it spent a couple of days sight-seeing in the Rockies, but it's back on the road again now…
