Thanks to every one who offered advise in Part One of 12 String Recomendation.

I said that USA build 12 string Ovations were few and far between, here in the UK. What is the first Used 12 string I find, it's a Ovation 1115. They want £400, which is $ 700, for it. It is well used and in need of new strings. That is in my books expensive. It has been in the shop for some time and at price, likley to stay there.

What is 1115 12 string - is it a cracker ! When was it produced. I have no serial number yet.

Thanks in advance

That is the aforementioned Pacemaker. Nice guitar.
(fyi: It's acoustic-only).

$700 sounds a bit high, but we're very spoiled over here . . . .

1115 is non pickup.

1615 is with pick up.

You did not ask for the advise, but here is some.
If it were me, I would go in and offer my best price and see if they go for it. You have nothing to lose really I don't think. Anyway, Good Luck!

I agree.
Decide how much you want to pay, and offer it up (in CASH, on-the-spot). Worst he can say is "no".
If it's been somewhat of a "slow" day, he might bite . . .
