Ovation website sez OP-Studio, but the retailers say OP-Pro...

Location: Vernon CT		I have seen a used LX 12 string up at G.C. in a orangey yellow burst, I thought you were talking specifically about a KOA top. I think it was going for $1199.00

Location: SoCal		Koa - exactly and not a Celeb...interesting to see if US made. Two years ago, 2008C was an Adamas, this ? may be the 2010C ?

Location: SoCal		Straight off of a dealer's page. I did notice that the Koa in this picture is not nearly as balanced as the three 2009C's that Al sent me.

Bottom is not that attractive.

And, I thought the first two 2009C's were fantastic...then he sent me 001 which is even better. And, my benchmark is my Martin Koa from 1980.

Location: SoCal		I just think it strange that this would be on a dealer's website (Sweetwater) for sale in November - not listed as an exclusive for Sweetwater. Usually, from what I understand, the new guitar line-up is at NAMM in January with advance info to all dealers in November/December.

The ad doesn't say country of origin.
