Location: Tuscany, Italy		I'm looking for this guitar. I know it is a limited edition and haven't seen so much of them. Does anyone have some additional information and eventually can consider to part with it ?
Thanks
Riccardo

Location: Utah		The 6778 is a mid depth standard bowl. I believe that the contour bowl equivalent is the 2778. Alternatively, Guitar Center is having a blowout sale on their version of the 1778LX in that same finish, gloss black with single spalted maple inlaid epaulet. Mid bowl, better grade top than the 6778LX, but a maple neck rather than the walnut on the 6778LX. Same OpPro. They call it the GC178LX I believe.

Or, you could buy my beautiful 6778LX in Vintage Natural. Going to eBay this next week if not sold here sooner.

Location: Tuscany, Italy		Thanks for the offer flysig. I'm tempted ... but i really like the black finish one with no dots on the fretbord (like the T series). Here in europe i find a limited edition of this model with the contour bowl but they listed a price of 1.200 Euro (on sale !!). Toooo high .... so i'm looking for something cheaper (like yrs) but in black ..... or wait better moment with more funds.

Location: Utah		Try posting a new thread with GC178LX in the title, maybe in the main forum. I bet someone knows of a Guitar Center with one of them available.

Location: Munich, Germany		Riccardo,

you won't find this guitar overseas.

It was a special order inspired by the former german Ovation distributor Musik Meyer.

You can still find them in shops here...
Shallow Bowl version
Contour Bowl version
...but they were exclusively made for the european market, side by side with the... white Contour Bowl Legend

Best regards,
Kurt

Location: Tuscany, Italy		Thanks kurt.
I've seen the guitar on musik-smidth website. Unfortunately the cost is still pretty high for a guitar on-sale.
Nevermind i'll try my chance on ebay on the american similar model.
