Location: South Central Louisiana--cajun country!! | Hello everyone,
I am brand new to the forum and recently got interested in acquiring a 12-string Ovation. I have owned a Glen Campbell Balladeer since my first year in college, 1973.
After getting a little education from different sites, I am interested in a USA made 12 string Elite, Custom, Balladeer or Adamas. Mid-depth, contour (or full depth possibly)
So please let know if you have a 12 string for sale as described above.
Thanks

Feel free to post your request in the for sale section.
Just curious, I noticed you omitted Legends from you list. Is there a reason why you'd rather a Custom Balladeer over a Legend or Custom Legend? |

Thanks for noting that omission. I am still familiarizing myself with the various Ovation models. I will add legends to the mix!!

Since we're spending your money, I suggest you go out of your way to at least play an Adamas 1688. It's a deep bowl with a carved peghead and is without a doubt, the best playing/sounding 12 string...period. I don't have one for sale, but they do show up from time to time. They cost more than the others, but you get what you pay for. |

Ha Ha!! It doesnt hurt to dream. I will take a look. I am having fun on the forums here. Seeing so many people enthusiastic about the O's.
I graduated high school in '73 and traded in a Fender Coronado II and Silvertone Amp with Vox speakers for my Glen Campbell Ovation Balladeer. Couldnt bring the electric stuff in the dorm you know. Wish I still had the Fender...worth about $2000 now!!
A cpuple of years ago thought about selling the O to get a better Taylor and my 6 kids said "no way, you raised on that guitar with songs several nights weekly" So I am glad I kept it.
Anyway thanks for the tip. I will have a look at the Adamas...and dream.
