Its appears to be unplayed!
No fret wear! I mean none.
Action set to factory default.
No sheen from a hand moving over the oil finished
neck. Clear proctectors still on the tuners.
Loving life
Hehehe

Pictures to follow.

First photos do not do this guitar justice.
Its got a pearl/sparkle to the flag with effect that almost makes it look like its moving.
This guitar looks like it was either sitting in the case or in glass display for the last 6 years.
Really not handled. The oil finished neck did not have sheen to it yet. Its starting to after 3 hours of playing.
K-Bar neck, mid bowl, 24+c preamp with true balance
pick up. Its A-Braced AA sitka top with other Legend appointments. Its very warm sounding.
I removed one shim and restrung it.

Ovall it was steal for the price.
easilly could have sold twive what I paid for it.
I am quite pleased.

I just played ger out at LaSalle in Collinsville Ct.
Well I walked in signed up and was greeted with a guy whose guitar who would not work, Yuri Alverez.
Mic'ing was feeding back
So I let him play the 1777-usa.
He was was impressed with its feel playability
This guitar sounds Amazing!!
I loved getting to hear her from infront of the speakers.
The guitar blew away Tacoma's Tak's, Taylors,
and other Ovations.
The only guitar that was its equal sound wise
was 1971 Martin D35.

All the players oooed and aweeed over the sound and finish.
I Had the last slot.
Saw the crowd bouncing along to wreck ole 97.
Followed by my original "The Luithier Song".
There was was huge cheer mid song song at Line.....
Charlie Kaman gave us those wild roundback
Ovation guitars!
I took me by surprise.
I ended the night with Delta Dawn.
It was fun the who the room along on the chorus.
All in all a great night!

I believe I found signature instrument!!
