Location: Maryland | I found this on a local craigslist and I am not sure if this is a good model compared to the newer models. asking price is 500.00 is this worth checking into or should I go for a newer contour gs body light weight design?

Location: Phoenix AZ | An older custom legend is sort of a "tradional" Ovation sound. If that's the kind of sound you like, then it's a good guitar for you. |
