Location: Clermont, Georgia | I am wanting to sell my Ovation 12 string guitar. It is a model 1615, around a 1967 year. It may be called a Pacemaker.It has the five piece neck. I have a set of light guage strings on it which makes it very easy to play. It has one blemish at seven o'clock near the edge of the bowl about a quarter of an inch long, other than that the instrument is in excellent shape. It comes with the original hard shell case which says ovation on it and a stretch type capo, it has the built in electrical pickup. Can I get $600.00 for it? We shall see. |

Welcome to the board. You might decide to keep your guitar after coming here. People have a reasonably high opinion of them. Wander around the website and go thru the archives. You'll learn a lot about your guitar. Key search words should be "Pacemake" and "1615".
A couple of observations. First, since your guitar is an acoustic electric, it would have been built in 1972 or later. Ovation started building a/e's in 1972.
Second, $600 may be a little high. I've seen them go on ebay for $450-$550. But it's all a matter of the right buyer and seller crossing paths at the same time.
Good luck with your sale. |

I second what Moody said. As a previous owner (steward?) of a Pacemaker I can say they are wonderful examples of craftsmanship and design. The only reason I sold mine was to step up to another example of fine C&D! You will probably see an ebay sale of between $300-$450 is my guess. You would be better off just getting another or trading if you want something different.
Do a search on 1615 and see what comes up!
Peace |

Which finish is it and what are your thoughts on price considering the "going" prices as mentioned by our esteemed colleauges. I am looking for a natural finish but I think $600.00 is high.
