I was originally thinking a Celebrity but they claim a solid top so I'm thinking a mid bowl Elite of some sort.
Or just a custom copy?
The description is a bit ambiguous
Ovation Ebay Oz
Thanks AJ |

Yeah... They couldn't afford the Lawsuit. |

If the same ad was for a custom Gibson or Fender Ebay would pull the listing. :rolleyes: |

"These guitars are design in the USA and are manufactured in KOREA! Yes. Quality. And best of all, the PRICE IS VEY LOW !! We dont even spend money on photograpy just to pass the savings to our customer. If you ask everyone who ever bought from us, they can tell you that these photos in the listing does not show the true quality of the workmanship of these guitars." :eek: |

What legitimate purpose would you have for wanting a COA for a guitar that you do not own?
I can understand why you might Sell a piece of paper for $50... But why (else) would you Buy it?
(not that a CWK2 signature ain't worth $50... :eek: ) |

Sorry, I thought you were saying the seller was somehow being shady by trying to sell it. I've seen people sell the glossy paper jackets off hard cover books and there's actually people who buy them!
I've sold the truss rod adjustment wrenches that come with new guitars. I mean how many of these things do you really need. Maybe one?
