Ovation Anniversary (1657) Guitar

Vintage Guitar (1981) in Excellent Condition.
Guitar was built to commemorate Ovation's 10th anniversary.

Ebony fingerboard - Hand-selected spruce top - gold hardware - original hardshell case - original electronics - fancy inlays - herringbone purfling. Original manual - guitar was babied. Guitars this age are not usually in such great shape. (NO cracks!)

Be a part of the history of a great guitar

Jeff, nice looking guitar. I have one like it, except it's a 1157-7, straight acoustic model, in mint condition (1978). I actually tried to sell it here a couple times for 475.00, and didn't get any takers. I finally came to my senses, and decided to keep it. It is the loudest guitar that I own, and sounds awesome. Anyway, good luck with your sale.

Thanks Mike:

It does sound incredible plugged-in and unplugged. Its just that I've acquired an Adamas and need the space. Have you ever noticed that Ovation cases are just so hard to store!?

Price Drop - $750 + shipping.

I'm always amazed that these guitars don't sell for much more than they do. Wonderful sounding guitars, and very high quality. I love my Anniversary Model, and i'm glad I didn't sell it, now. These cases are a little difficult to store, but I like the old brown ones. I'm actually looking to buy one, should anyone have one to sell.

These older ones are nice. I like the sound hole details on these. And I'll bet that spruce has had time to age quite nicely.

That's what I really like about mine. It's the lightest Ovation i've ever had, and the loudest. The top has really aged nicely, and is super responsive, even to a light touch.
