I've asked the seller but I thought I'd ask the experts in the meanwhile...





1116 maybe?

Also value? Was holding out for a 1763, but maybe this would be good...

Could be a 1113 or a 1613? Don't think the 1116 had pre-amp.

1613. Looks like a cedar top and gold tuners. The 1616 had a spruce top and chrome tuners.

Can't really tell for certain from those pics tho....

What's going on with that bridge? It looks odd to me… might just be one I am not familiar with?

That's a std ovation a/e nylon string bridge. Used from around 1970 onwards.

Yup a 1613 - well done everyone :-)

Now to wonder should I hold out for a 1763 or not - this is currently £250.
