Location: Finland, Europe | Hi,
I've found and buy a 1612-1 Custom Ballader few weeks ago here in Finland. I'll never find out what modell it is without you, so thank You all who are writing in here!
There's no serialnumber in guitar, so it's maybe no possible to know more about it.
Somebody have sat on it and the top was broken, but one of my friend (luthier) repair it. The new top is aa-spurce with natural color, so it's not sunburst anymore :-(. But it sounds really good!
I'm now changing the frets, and then it's almost ok.
One big problem is electronics and the strap hlders are lost. Does anybody know where I can get new strap holders? There must be somekind of special system in Ovation? Please help me.

... or depress the released button on the male piece.

After having my 1984 Collectors knocked out of my hand while adjusting the strap so it wouldn't come off (by some lady who explained to me that I could get a nice geetar at walmart for 79.99 to replace it) I won't play anything without strap locks!
I also don't play at nursing homes anymore either....but that's a different story :D |
