Apart from the LX series,I think most Legends are "A" braced. Also, Ive read where the Balladeer Special is "A" braced. What other Ovations, old and new are "A" braced? I'm primarily interested in a non-cutaway, deep bowl model with the best accoustic sound.

Look for an early to mid 80's Legend, no cutaway...

... most recreational drugs were still affordable, and HIV/aids hadn't kicked in yet. Sure the big hair and leisure suits were kinda goofy but what the hell ...

You'll get a guitar with an A braced top, glossed neck, K-bar, and probably OP 24 electronics. And it would be over 20 years old so the top would have opened up nicely. What more could you want in an acoustic guitar?

Maybe Charlie Kaman's autograph? Thanks Sleepy Bones Lee, that helps. Maybe I'll put on my lime green leisure suit, grow some big hair and watch VH1's "I Love the Eighties" show.
