| I found this one for $100.
It did already have a guitar in it though. Seems I still need a case. As you can see though, my '68 Balladeer fits perfectly.
The guitar that came with it is a 1115-1.

Location: Boise, Idaho | Beautiful looking Pacemaker, Nick. Was it really only $100? I also have too many guitars for my cases, but I haven't found that nice a case. I didn't think the 12 strings fit in the regular cases. At least that's what I'd tell my wife if I found a case with a guitar in it. |

Got the same guitar (w/case) for the same price - only in "Natural" . . . |

| It was on craigslist for $100. I didn't even bother negotiating the price down. I mean for heaven's sake a new case is $85.
It does need the binding reglued on the lower bout. But hey, I'll do it. I also got a NOS set of strings thrown in and an ancient looking official Ovation package of 12 string nut, saddle and shims.
Since I really did need a case, I'm going to tell the wife the guitar only cost $15. |

The good news:Only 8 more and you'll catch up to me.
The bad news:I'm a mere small timer compared to some of the folks here.
That is a very nice start, though. Congrats on the both of them.
