Location: SoCal | I've always looked at it as the top of the line Custom Legend. Deep cutaway. New one has inlaid rosette, OP-Pro, and ? changes to neck and body...this is probably ? yr 2000. |

I'm certainly no expert, but the case has the white Ovation logo inside the top. My 2003 Elite has that (& a wrench), the 2002 I got from you doesn't have the white Ovation logo inside. Could that mean it's a 2003 or newer? Sure is a pretty thing.

Location: Canton (Detroit), MI | DEFINITELY a deep-bowl, looking at the side and back pictures. Looks like a fairly recent one, actually, from the case. Maybe someone wants a NEW 2004 one and they're clearing this one out?
Oh, if I had the money.....

Location: PA | I heard somewhere that the rectangular sticker above the oval factory sticker (inside the soundhole) indicates that this is a reconditioned/refurbished (FRG?) guitar. Can anyone confirm that this is true?
Also, based on the serial number in the pics, this guitar was built in year 2000.
Cheers! |
