I am interested in finding a new home for my 1657 Anniversary model Ovation.

1981- Serial number 235682- The Anniversary 1657
Purchased new in 1981

Sent to Ovation USA, approx. 1994, where they installed the OP-X pre-amp. Huge improvement in tone and playability when used with an amplifier.

Finish has aged nicely- the color of the spruce top is just incredible. Bowl is dark brown.

Guitar has seen extremely limited use in the past 8-9 years and has been case bound.

Case is the brown hard shell Ovation.

Asking $900.00 (buyer to determine shipping method, costs, etc) Shipping to lower 48 preferred.

Thanks

Beautiful guitar. That's a deep bowl isn't it?

Nick, yes deep bowl. I apologize for the picture quality...my wife dropped my camera and I think it's history!

The Anniversary is one of my all time favs. They're everything that's great about an A-braced Legend, with the addition of some gorgeous and unique stylings including a carved TRC. Great guitar
