Or maybe a lot!

I spotted this "Ovation S733 Balladeer Classical Guitar w/Case" on ebay...but I don't recognize the "S733" model number. What is it really?

Here is the ebay list:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Ovation-S733-Balladeer-Classical-Guitar-w-Case-...

And is there anyone near Redmond, Washington that might be able to check it out for me?

Thanks!

If you look further down on the listing, it is really an S773.
It is a nylon Special Balladeer from 2000.
I have never owned a Nylon, but I have owned an S771 steel Special Balladeer and they are nice.
There are a few members from up there in that neck of the woods.

I ain't nowhere near it. I'm just slumming in Portland.

Your eyes are better/quicker than mine! But when i checked the S773 on the Ovation site, the guitar it shows is nothing like this one. Maybe they got the wrong picture...it looks very similar to the picture they have for the S778. Hmm...

I'll be in Portland for just a few more days, then we leave the 22nd to return to Taiwan. Lots of packing and good byes to say.

That is the wrong photo... That is an S778.
(forever they had a Celebrity as a 1778LX)

Here is a link to an S773 at Elderly

If that really is a Classical with nylon strings and a 2 inch neck, the person I'm trying to buy for isn't interested. She wants a steel strung mid-depth bowl if possible.

Thanks!
