Looks like the tuner buttons have been replaced with some nice wooden ones. I've got the same guitar and it has chrome buttons. Hands down it is the easiest neck to play of any Ovation or Adamas I've tried. Good luck with your sale.

Yes the tuner buttons have been replace with Rosewood ones from Paul Templeman. The original chrome ones are included. It is a great playing guitar if it had a 1 3/4 neck it wouldn't be for sale.

I love, love, love these guitars. Unfortunately, I'm not in the market right now. A fantastic steal for someone in need!

Hi, Mike M!
Mike S., here from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. If you were not looking for a nylon, or a 12-String, I would offer you a straight trade on my 1990 Elite 1768-4 Dep bowl Cutaway,($750.00 CDN, w/OHSC, case cover/candy,and manual!), but...? that's not what your'e lookin for, so if'n ya do change yer mind, let me know,eh? I might re-post the ELite for sale too, but it depends on what happens with the 1983 Collector Series I found right here in my hometown, of all places. It keeps calling...
