Good morning everyone. Offered here first before off to the auction block. If anyone has been looking for one of these fantastic 12 strings , this one is in beautiful condition for a 1987 model. I assume to be the 2nd owner only because when i got it a while back( on ebay no less) it looked virtually unplayed and stored all of it's life in the case. I have played it minimally and it is perfect. There is not a scratch, ding, mark or any finish crack whatsoever on this baby. Well, there the usual light scrathes from strumming, but that is it. Top is perfectly flat, action is as good as it gets on a 12 string. I know these are made to take being tuned to concert pitch but i always keep it tuned down to D. And when i know i would'nt be getting it out for a while, i would tune it just a tad lower and tune back up when i needed to. The OHSC is in just as nice of shape. All latches work , but no key. Serial # 363594. OP24 electronis work great. Too many guitars and need to generate some cash for another purchase(non guitar related). I am going to try to post pics in this thread, if i'm not successful, go to my album and it is there.Price is $799.00 including shipping and insurance in the continental US. Thank you... James
P.S. i am keeping the stand :)

I Love my rebuilt 1115, and it's not going anywhere anytime soon(only O I own currently) :( ,

but in MY opinion, the 1758 was the best wood topped 12 string that Ovation made. I've had 3 of them previously, and if thing's were better financially right now I'd probably be considering yours, good price for a Great 12 string!

yes, pictures please. and good luck with your sale.

Glenn
