Beautiful OVATION Sunburst Birdseye Mandolin!  This is an great example of the rarity of the MCS148 Celebrity DeLuxe model in a sunburst birdseye maple top rather than the cherry-cherryburst, the ruby red burst, the black or the natural ones that are so common.

And here are several pic's of this Birdseye Mando to whet your appetite!

Here's the link to the original pricelist found at OvationGuitars.com showing the list as $749.50 :

And here's a link to GuitarCenter.com showing their price (without a gig-bag!) at $529 plus tax and shipping!

This mando is in excellent (like new) condition, and I've upgraded the tuners with high-end machines from the factory in New Hartford, CT. Comes with gold-plated strap-knobs, a black leather retro strap, and a great little custom gig-bag. Also comes with fresh Elixir strings and an extra set!

I am offering this all for only $500 plus actual UPS costs. This is quite a little package deal, and would make a great gift as well! Please feel free to email with any questions...Many Mahalos~  Kurt

Very nice!
Which Elixers are you using and how do they sound compared to the standard 8080 Mediums? Aren't the Elixers loop-end?

Elixir Lights (10-34)...They sound great to me! She's even prettier in person!
