Hello,

I'm new here but certainly not new to Ovation guitars. I have owned an Ovation Viper 1271 since 1978 when I got one of the first ones (E 15737) off the line at the New Hartford, CT plant from my second cousin who worked there.

Now, I have an Ovation Semi hollow, shallow body w/f holes Bass guitar with the number 2 branded on the back of the headstock. It's a maple body and neck with a rosewood fretboard. It has German made tuning pegs which I don't believe I have ever seen on an Ovation before. There are no other markings or labels anywhere else on this bass. I have pics posted here:

If you cannot view these pics, let me know, I would be happy to email them.
Any help would be nice. BTW, it is NOT for sale. It came from my Fathers estate.

Thank you,

Ken Barlow

Hi Ken, and welcome ... That would be a Typhoon Bass. Here's a link to one of our member's links that probably has more information for you: Ovation" target="_blank" title="http://www.ovationgallery.com/]Ovation">http://www.ovationgallery.com/]Ovation Gallery site

Yep, a rather nice Typhoon and early one too.
