Location: Freeport, IL | Hi,
Gotta sell this one. It's black and mint and I just purchased the deluxe 91580 case (also black) for it from Musician's Friend last week. I had it set up by Ward Brodt in Madison and it's a beauty in every way - especially the sound.
I visited my accountant this morning and it was not pretty. I owe quite a bit:-( - first year that I've had to pay in a very long time. At any rate, this one can't stay. Somebody has to move out of the house, and it ain't gonna be me - the Ovation needs a new home.
Price for the 1778T with case is 800.00 and that includes shipping in the continental US.
Thanks,
Jon |

Thanks for the word. How does $600 sound? I'll pay shipping in the continental US.

Location: NJ | I saw one a while ago in a local shop for @$589.
BUT . . . . you'll have to take into consideration that it's being sold as "new" and comes with full Warranty documentation . . .
. . . and yours isn't.
sorry :rolleyes:
You could try it on eBomb at 6 and see what happens . . . |

I think I might have mentioned something to you about it in a post, and you kind of alluded that the dealer was doing something "wrong".
When I went back to check it out again, it was gone. |

Location: Grand Rapids, MI | I bought mine new for $599 (without case, I already had the correct case) a couple of weeks ago from Guitar Trader online.
Musician's Friend has them new for $699 with case. |

Well, I'm getting closer anyway. First 550.00 takes it + $15 for shipping. Deluxe hardshell case included. Hopefully, this is a reasonable price.
Thanks,

Location: Freeport, IL | Well,
The 1778T is staying with me. Found something else to sell! Isn't life wonderful - like this guitar better than anything I have had yet. I am considering trading my Martin D-16M for one of Al's 2001 Redwoods |

Thanks for the vote of confidence. The more I play it, the more it grows on me. Love the feel of the neck.
