I’m in need of some help.
A while back, my Aunt, a wonderful singer and player, was hit by a passing truck’s mirror while mowing at her property line, causing a bunch of nerve damage in her left hand.
As a result, she is finding it too difficult to play steel string guitars, including her Custom Balladeer.
She really wants a nylon string Ovation and if I hadn’t traded mine, I would give it to her.
I’m hoping somebody might have a line on a decent US made nylon Ovation she can get at a decent price, like everybody else she is on a budget.
The guitar doesn’t have to be perfect but I don’t want her to have to settle with a beater.
She doesn’t want to get rid of her CB as she doesn’t even know if the nylon Ovation will work for her.
If I can find her one and it doesn’t work for her, I’ll buy it back from her.
If anybody can help me out, please shoot me a pm.
Thanks in advance,
Michael

Seattle c/l....1613 at Puyallup pawn shop.
I would have bought it if I had not found the 1763 in Boise.
I might be able to help if they won't ship.
Cheers,
John

Atlanta c/l...1116-4 just like the one I got from you. doubt if it's as mint as mine but looks good. If your aunt has hand issues, she might find the shorted scale of the 1116 a better choice.
hope this helps...john
