Seriously, you've already bought it, and it's for your son. It's a used Korean-made guitar. Are you planning on selling it?
Oh, and welcome. |

Location: closely held secret | No. It's a great guitar for $275. If I stumbled on one for that price I'd probably buy it, and I have a closet full of Ovations. |

I'm Broke, and I have never played a nylon... But I would definitely give $275 for that.
The case is worth $149!

Folklore is a 2774 and with steel strings. I don't know that there is an "AX" model.
The 2773 is a Country Artist |

Location: ct | It looks just like the 2773 LX model but says 2773 AX and I cant find it anywhere online, guess its just a mystery.the guy I bought it from said it was given to him from his friend who worked at the ovation plant in CT. |

If that guitar has the wrong label in it you got a steal. |

That's an interesting guitar for sure. |
