Looking for help in dating my Ovation. Written in blue ink on the Ovation label by the model is 1727 and just below that in the same blue ink is E621.
The guitar is natural finish, brown bowl, diamond shaped abalone on the fret board, a single knob volume control with three sliders and gold plated keys.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Todd

Can you post a picture of the guitar and the label?

so far all i'm able to determine is you have an Ovation SolidBody Electric. Built sometime between January of 1973 to february of 1975.
do you have a photo? if i can't give you anymore specifics, i can steer you in the right direction where you can learn more.

Glen Campbell Artist Balladeer made somewhere around 1971-72. I would guess the pre-amp was upgraded at some point to OP24. Dave

Thanks to all of you for the information. I'll take a couple of pictures and post them. The factory advised me that although it is written as a model 1727 it most likely is a 1127.

Thanks,
Todd

1127 would be the Glen Campbell Artist Balladeer.
