Looks to be a 1667 in great shape.

Isn't this a mid depth bowl Legend? It was only made for about a year in the early 80's and replaced the GC Artist?

The only midbowl Legend I know of is the 1777. I think the 1667 is a deep bowl, similar to the 1767. From the 'larger picture' ebay photo the bowl looks identical to my 1767..

I stand corrected. The only mention I could find was in a June 1983 catalog which listed the 1667 as a deep bowl Legend cutaway.....

The seller has a good rep and has sold quite a few guitars, perhaps not many Ovations. I'm curious if this model ever had the label in the bowl identifying it as a 1667 Legend. The seller thinks it's a Balladeer. I've never seen a cutaway Custom Balladeer with neck binding.

It's a Legend. The gold tuners, neck binding and model number all identify it as such. Don't worry what the seller says. If you're really worried about it, ask for a pic of the label.....

Not worried just curious. I think this is probably a very nice guitar. One of the photos show the blue label is still there, so that has the model number, I just wonder why he calls it a Balladeer...I sent him an email, haven't heard back..

Better he thinks it's a balladeer than a legend, maybe he'll take less.
