5_Corner,
i understood everything you said, including the part about not wanting to die in the middle of a film.

are you able to get the serial number or photographs from the seller?

G'day 5_Corner and welcome. There's a wealth of knowledge here and you'll get plenty of help. If you can find the model and serial number it should be relatively easy to find what year it was made. Good luck with it.

G'day 5_Corner...I'm way down here in Australia so I can't give you any idea of what this guitar might cost in the USA. I'd bet though, at this time, a lot of the US members would be tucked up in their beds.

I'm sure someone will be able to help you when the sun comes up. :)

Welcome to the OFC 5_Corner. Based on the serial number that you provided, it was made between July and November of 1968. Sounds like you got yourself a nice vintage instrument, and it must sound very nice as well.

Check out www.ovationguitars.com for more info on it.

Congrats and enjoy your Ovation Balladeer.
