Location: Atlanta,Ga. | I had that guitar for several years.It was part of a purchase from a former Ovation employee .Me and a friend in california bought 9 Ovations total from the employee.Couple of adamas'(including serial #79,dark brown top),several solidbody proto's and two with this soundhole design .This was a prototype wood top adamas classical.Has the kaman music group label inside with WTC and date of completion.Best Ovation classical guitar i have ever played.There is also a 12 string elite version with this soundhole configuration..Only two i know of..I guess ovation did not like the design and scrapped the idea. |

It totally looks like someone was having a little to much fun with a kaleidascope in the 70's..I'm sure it sounds great though. I generally don't like to feel dizzy while looking at my guitars though! |
