Hi Friends!

I came across a vintage Ovation Electric Guitar a few days ago. It was a gift from my father who is an avid collector of vintage music equipment. It's a GORGEOUS piece with what looks like some custom inlays in the neck (at least, that is what was told to me by a TRUSTED source here in Indy). I am looking to sell this for a reasonable price...not looking to gouge anyone....could any of you GURUS help me out here?


THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!

You can post the link to you photos here.
Make sure that your photos are marked as "public"...
And that we do not have to "join" something to see them.

Kirk, here is your guitar.


Here is a link to a brochure about you guitar, and the brochure. HERE




So, your inlays are not "custom". They are the original first-run fret doo-dads.
