Location: Germany, where delicious wine is growing (Rheinh) | I have the 12-string version of that. It was not a sound canon at all even plugged in with the OP24. I've upgrated mine to an OP24+, which is much louder and has much more volume. Plugged in it is now my 12-string gigging guitar. They are great looking ones at all.....and they are very,very rare!!!!

Yep. It's pretty easy to get carried away with an auction. You have to set a maximum price, then stick to it otherwise you can end up paying, literally, hundreds more than something is really worth. USED OVATION 5868AS ACOUS ELEC GTR WC 102612

Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | I had the 12 string version of this and while it played great (like all O 12s) it was really thin sounding.
Did not really care for the sound even when plugged on..
IMO that was a very good price for an average guitar. |
