I was originally thinking a Celebrity but they claim a solid top so I'm thinking a mid bowl Elite of some sort.

Or just a custom copy?
The description is a bit ambiguous

Ovation Ebay Oz


Thanks AJ

They say..."A lot of people love this concept, but it wasn't put into production due to production budget issue."

Yeah... They couldn't afford the Lawsuit.

I doubt it is in Sydney either. The grammar and spelling, along with the "no pickups" would suggest it is in SE Asia somewhere.

Richard you are probably rightI should have read the description better.

If the same ad was for a custom Gibson or Fender Ebay would pull the listing. :rolleyes:

I've complained to Ebay before when an Ovation copy did not have the word "copy" in the heading. Don't know what action they took.

They also include the following comment:-

"These guitars are design in the USA and are manufactured in KOREA! Yes. Quality. And best of all, the PRICE IS VEY LOW !! We dont even spend money on photograpy just to pass the savings to our customer. If you ask everyone who ever bought from us, they can tell you that these photos in the listing does not show the true quality of the workmanship of these guitars." :eek:

When I was selling my Oscar Schmidt Delta King, eBarf pulled that listing BECAUSE I said it was a Gibson Copy... Which it is.

Go figger :confused:

Just in case you are not being facetious, I will ask...

What legitimate purpose would you have for wanting a COA for a guitar that you do not own?

I can understand why you might Sell a piece of paper for $50... But why (else) would you Buy it?

(not that a CWK2 signature ain't worth $50... :eek: )

Not facetious at all. Maybe there's people who collect COA and this would be a great find for them.

Sorry, I thought you were saying the seller was somehow being shady by trying to sell it. I've seen people sell the glossy paper jackets off hard cover books and there's actually people who buy them!

I've sold the truss rod adjustment wrenches that come with new guitars. I mean how many of these things do you really need. Maybe one?
