A good condition 1667 is definitely above the center line of the "thousands of them out there". |

Location: Indiana | My 1677 (mid bowl) is one of my favorites, Sparker000. Same guitar/era, different depth bowl.
Thanks, PM for bringing this over here. Sometimes I see questions languish over in the welcome area and didn't think of responding here. |

Location: SoCal | Jm, we can all learn something by helping somebody in their quest for info. For whatever reason, I thought that the cutaways didn't make an appearance until 1983 or so. Also, I would assume that your 1677 is what the Glen Campbell model became. And also, an 1/8" deeper bowl than the GC model. That slightly deeper bowl is what my 2006 GC RI is based on.
I also want to add that the early 80's were a great time for Ovations. The spruce they used and what they built made for wonderful guitars.

Location: Indiana | I ordered the 1677 early in '82. One of the first pieced-together cutaways. You and I have talked about this guitar for so long now, PM... still hope to see it in your lap one day. |
