There is a beautiful white UK-II on ebay right now with a BIN price of $900 and 5 days left till the auction ends.

The hardware's a bit beat up, but a beauty still.

Eventually, but for now, I'm pretty happy with the wood-topped one I just acquired.

Thanks for the heads-up!

The guy has zero feedback, and offers no description of the condition… At least he took (or borrowed) some pretty nice photos… ;)

The body looks like it's in really good shape, there appears to be a small ding on the edge near the output jacks. As Damon mentioned, the hardware looks a little rough (but better than mine looked when I bought it.) It looks original, very white, didn't the white ones tend to yellow over time?

His "description" is just copied specs… If I was interested, I think I'd ask some questions about the condition, neck, electronics, etc.

With a new bridge and tuners, clean up the pickups, it would look pretty nice. Not a bad price as-is.

I like the white ones

I just snared this and I'm going to make my own Pearl White custom

It needs some work but I have a new gold bridge, tuners and parts and a very good custom painter

White ones are pretty. I love how the natural neck and headstock contrast with the white body.

As for the UK-II you acquired - great snatch, James! It's the second Ovation that this store was selling in like the past 4 months.

Around 4 months ago I did bid on an excellent condition natural Viper with an ebony fretboard, OHSC and User's manual as a case candy they were selling off of Ebay. Got outbid and it eventually got sold for $475. Here is the original listing

First they listed it for the BIN price of $900 and when it didn't sell they set up an auction where I lost out to some lucky guy/girl.
