| If the description is true this is well worth the price. To me this is just about the best Ovation 12-string. Center soundhole, phono and xlr out, 5-piece neck, all the bells and whistles..Beautiful instrument!

Location: Warren,Pa. | I owned this exact guitar, except mine had an Optima (which this seller incorrectly says is on his guitar). He also incorrectly says it has Schaller tuners. Mine had Pings like this one and I was very dissappointed that I didn't have Schallers.
Enough nerdspeak (for now)...I replaced it with a '79 Pacemaker and IMHO: 1st place-Pacemaker; 2nd place-CL...of any 12 string I've ever had my hands on.

John <>{ Amen to that, The Pacemaker is a fine instrument. Continually impresses me every time I pick it up. |

| I got an email from the seller..he was friendly, still says the tuners are schallers...but whatever, I thought schallers were engraved with the name or intial S..(the tuners on my Legend are schallers) |

Location: Tennessee | I have that exact guitar with the exception of an Optima preamp. If I'm not mistaken, mine has the mini Shallers, but the guitar is several years older than this one.
I've played a lot of other 12 strings. For me, none have sounded better or played better than my CL12. It would be one of the last of my guitars to go.
You would not be disappointed with this guitar. |
