| On ebay there is a Balladeer 1861. The listing says that the color is "Gold- Sparkle- metalic". The picture looks like "Natural" to me. The current models on Ovation's web site do not have a "Gold" color option. Was gold an option in prior years?
Thanks!

Location: NJ | The Hamer orange was pretty cool. The silver sparkle top ovations were rather eh ...interesting. I think it looks better on hamers than ovations. I had a gold one that I sold about a year or so ago. It had a rather thick finish but a really cool look. It developed a finish crack or two but the woman who currently owns the guitar loves it.
Me God? no not at all. Just a lunatic with a bunch of guitars |
