If you can't afford it, then let the list know what your upper limit is and I'm sure you'll get a much better range of suggestions. |

Location: Warren,Pa. | The best way to acquire an Ovation 12 string for $1000 is to find someone here who will sell one. Or Al. Either way, you'll get the most guitar for your $$.

He does a lot of over-seas shipping & has a vast selection of Ovations you won't find anywhere else.

And sometimes he just likes people to call him and say hello. :) |

He'll make you an offer you can't refuse. |
