Location: Phoenix AZ		For sale is my LOST ART KOA SPECIAL 14 fretted. Serial number 8 of 12.

These were the 14 fret version of the wonderful customer batch commissioned by Lost Art Vintage Instruments some years ago (maybe 2007?). I bought it and never took it out of the case so this instrument is 100% never been played. There is a small white smudge about an 1/16th inch by 1 inch long on the bowl that doesn't show in photos which I'm sure I can rub it off with a damp cloth.

o Lost Art Vintage Koa Special number 8 of 12
o Solid loa top with single offset sound hole trimmed in tortoise
o Cutaway body trimmed in tortoise
o Deep contour bowl
o 5 piece gloss finish neck
o 1-3/4 nutwidth
o Ebony fret board bound in tortoise
o 14 frets clear to the body
o Ovation OPP pickup
o Ovation VIP-5 preamp with XLR
o Ovation deluxe hardshell case

There are only 12 of these guitars in existance and here is you (maybe last) opportunity to buy one at well below the original new selling price.

Price is $1600. plus S/H

Sorry for all the reflections in the photos ...

Location: SoCal		Guys and Gals, jump on this...I just traded my 'as new' 1687-8 reissue to Al for #2/12. Took me a long time to get used to the sound hole design. Now that I have been able to play it, it is a keeper.

Dave is listing his for hundreds of dollars less than what you should have to pay for one.

Location: Milano, ITALY		This is an OUTSTANDING instrument. A work of art by the New Hartford masters. I wish I had budget to acquire the privilege to become its carekeeper, but I just bought the 2009 koa and am discussing an UTE, so at the moment I must pass. But what a guitar at a great price! Parting with it sure is a pain. I hope it will end in the right hands...

I have #1 of 12. These are one of the very best guitars ever made by Ovation, and if I decided to move mine, I would ask much more for it.

Jump on it while you can!

Location: Sydney, Australia		That's a bargain. The only thing stopping me invoking the wrath of SWMBO is the fact that it's twin is hanging on my mancave wall.
