You know what it is. More details HERE
Mint condition, not a mark on it. No nicks, dings, cracks, scuffs, etc ... NOTHING. Plays like butter and sounds like an angel. Stacked V/T preamp and STEREO outputs. Case has some scuffs and paint marks on it but is perfectly functional. Someone stenciled "MLM" (Musicians Live Matter ???) on it.
More photos and specs on ovationgallery.com please ask any questions by PM me here.
$1200. plus you pay the shipping. USA sales only.

Location: Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA | Hey, FlySig,
Wowsers! You got yourself a beauty! The stereo wiring is killer for any venue. I had a Stereo Classic Ovation at one point, and unfortunately, sold it?! to one of my guitar students many moons ago, which was/and still is one of the stupidest things I ever done. (The other stupid things I've done would fill a room, but, "they are, AHEM, not for public consumption", as the saying goes.) Enjoy your new guitar! Stay safe!

Location: Utah | Thanks, Mike S.! I've been casually browsing for a sunburst A-braced custom legend for quite a while, but when they did come up they had problems. My cabinet is overly full already, so I don't know where this one is going to live. |

It should live on a stand next to your favorite chair so it gets played often

You snooze, you lose!
Our humidity is very low here, so nothing stays out on a stand for more than a day at a time. It is going to take creativity to make this work, but it will be worth it. |

Fly, you're gonna be happy with this one...... |

Location: When?? | Ah yes.. tantalizing multiple senses of any true Ovation aficionado, of which there is no short supply around here. Congratulations to FlySig on such a terrific addition this his fleet, and congratulations to Standingovation for being one who clearly cares for and preserves his gear to the highest level. And also congratulations to me for not going out and kicking the dog because I missed this fantastic deal. At least the dog's happy. |

Location: Phoenix AZ | This Custom Legend is a tough one to let go (for obvious reasons). But the funny thing is that over the last 5 years or so I've become less and less concerned with what my guitar looks like, what name is on the headstock, etc etc. The ironic result is that I'm playing fewer of my guitars, but playing those few more often and I think actually enjoying the act of actually "playing" more than ever ... and isn't that the point? |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I didn't go quite as far down the road as SO did, but he's taken a few more steps back on the road I'd like to take. Maybe if I wouldn't have decided that the next step was to use up that pile of new strings that sit there, I would quit looking at them so much and start playing them more. |

I have been too distracted and not online much,so I haven’t been here in a while. I was wondering if you were still on here.(What was I thinking…right?) |

Location: Chicago, IL | This is indeed a great looking guitar. Kudos to the new owner. It looks like it is still in good hands.
I feel that some recognition needs to be given to the past owner(s) for keeping this guitar in this shape after many years. Takes great diligence and good care. |
