Joined: May 2008 Posts: 22 Location: New England, USA | Hi, I'm selling my 2007 Collectors model. It is a beautiful, very unique guitar. And it has the 70's pickup system (which sounds WAY better than the current undersaddles). Don't hit me, but I've put pickups in my Martin and simply am not playing the Ovation. In fact ever since I got my Martin, I haven't been playing the Ovation. It is as new as a used guitar can be. Never been gigged, never been out of the house and has lived in it's custom hardshell case (included). If your a real Ovation nut, you should look into this beauty. I purchased mine from American Musical in July 2008 and purchased my Martin in August, so I played it for a month. Everything is mint, all the electronics work perfectly. I paid $1000 for it new and I am asking $800 (that includes shipping). You can check reviews at Harmony Central at the link below. Please feel free to email with any questions. Thanks for looking!

While I really like my Martin too, I find myself playing the 07 more than the Martin. It's a good thing there are so many flavors of ice cream and no accounting for taste ... it's all good! That's a real nice looking top on the 07 ... someone is going to get a great guitar at a great price. | ||

Joined: May 2008 Posts: 22 Location: New England, USA | gulfcoast....If you haven't heard the new Dan Cd, by all means get it now! Dan worked on the music when he knew his time was limited and asked his wife, Jean, to release it after he passed. It's such a great album. I had to wait 2 weeks after the first listening....it really ripped my emotions to shreds. Check out "Nature of the Game"..nothing but his D-41 and his voice. So sad that so many under 30 don't know his music and appreciate his absolute brilliance. You know, Don Henley asked him to join his "new" band called The Eagles....Dan turned him down and thank God for it! | ||

Joined: May 2008 Posts: 22 Location: New England, USA | FlySig...you may be right...I've had second thoughts ever since I posted it...my Martin is in the shop getting a B Band pickup system, so I've been "forced" to play the Ovation and my very underrated Epiphone Masterbilt. The 2007 is really a wonderful unique piece of art and a joy to play.....thanks for making me feel guilty for putting it up for sale! Freakin' conscience! | ||
