That's less than a D-28 of that vintage and condition. Sounds like a bargain to me. :cool:

$2.5K is at least where a guitar of that vintage, quality, condition and rarity should be, so what's the problem?

You can put any kind of price tag on anything you want to. Doesn't mean it will sell.

I saw that listing last night. It was on the same page as another ad selling a used copy of Logic Express 7.2 for $299

Logic Express 8 is $199 new from Apple.

could be as simple as:

SWMBO: "You have too many guitars"
HWMO: "OK, I'll try to sell one, but if I can't get what it's worth, it stays."

2 weeks later...

HWMO: "well I tried, guess it stays"

:D

Holy bejeebers. Talk about clone wars. Lessee, if I got the right stain, and made up a pretty decent decal, perhaps I could also get about 10 times more than an otherwise ordinary Ovation is worth.

For those prices, it would be Adamas all the way for me.

I'd bet sooner than that, although the tricentennial should be a real hoot. Too bad I'll miss it and collecting the bet!

I love the story recently told here. After the run of 1,776 Patriot guitars were produced, there were some leftover materials, so a few more years later, Ovation recommenced production of the same guitar, sans the decals, and called it a Legend Limited. More knowledgeable members can confirm this, but the logic is obvious.

I've wondered before if my kids will check the value of #76 around that time. Alas, even if I make it that long (VERRRY doubtful), I'd be in a vegetative state by then anyway. :rolleyes:

Out of curiosity, I know where #1 is, but does anyone know where #1776 is. I'd be very interested in that one. Not $2500 worth of interested, but VERY interested indeed.
