| That just sounds like dirt needs to be cleaned out of the control nobs. It's a simple thing to do. And the jack just needs to be resoldered... no big deal. A local guitar tech can do that in his sleep. Nice guitar. Keep it. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | Someone who has owned a black 1537 should answer this, but I think the 5 piece necks were painted black to match the body. Not all US Ovations had the stripes, but this one would have until it was painted over. It has the right fretboard. |

| It has a 5-piece neck. The electronics are an easy repair. Get a schematic from Ovation and let a tech trouble shoot it. |

Location: GA USA | The seller should pay the referral fee, right? So Jack still owes you for the 1581. Maybe a percentage of the profit.
Except in both cases, the seller only got what he had in it. So, no. | |

Location: East Wenatchee, WA | Is this really a 1537? I have never seen a -5, but the position markers on the volume/tone are from an Adamas, not a 1537, and the trim ring around the top was wood on the other 1537's I have seen.
I mean, it looks like a 1537 in general, just some curious points I have not noticed before. | |

Location: PDX | Looks just like the one i used to own except for the tone and volume position markers. Wonder what's up with that?
I got it from Stephen and sold it to Leslie/"vision".
