Hi again everybody. After finding two of my dreams, the Adamas 2008-5 and the first Collectors, the 1982, I still have an empty space in my rack, ready to welcome an Anniversary. I had it, it was awesome, but in my young electric years I sold to get the money for some Telecaster or Stratocaster.
I would like to find another one.
It had a fantastic top and the sweet carved trussrod cover at the headstock (that's a transition model, they made some with the standard trussrod and some with the k-bar, according to what I know). I search the first type.
If you know of one of those guitars for sale, please let me know.
Thank you!

I've never seen a 1657 with a K-bar. Where did you come across this info that they were?

I've been offered several without the trussrod cover. Also, in the last days I've been searching the 1657 and I found that probably after 1980-81 (not sure) Ovation produced some. Here's one.
