Location: Chehalis, Washington | Early 90's, SSB cutaway with "outies," but it's not Koa. The wood is actually Angel Step Walnut - pretty unique looking stuff. I couldn't find a direct link for it on the Ovation site, though that's not a complete surprise.
There was a 6-string version (same model number) that ended a couple days ago here.
Oh, BTW, ssshhhhhhhhhhh! ;) |

Anyone seen many of these for sale, or is this as rare as I think it is? |
