Location: Cincinnati, OH		I have a custom ordered 1982 Custom Legend Model 1129 acoustic. The non-standard features are: artist depth bowl, Kaman K-bar neck and headstock, Barnboard finish (gray to black 'burst), chrome tuners, ebony bridge.








I have more pics in the OFC photo gallery.

I am curious to find out if any other custom order has a handwritten model number like mine does on the bowl label or any other designation.

If anyone is interested in giving this a new home, please contact me off-list.

Location: Paris/France		Hi,

I've had today some pics of a custom order from a German fan.
A Country Artist with a Custom Legend top.
Or maybe a Custom Legend with a Country Artist neck??? :D
By anyway, it's a very nice and unique Ovation.

Basically an old-style Folklore with Custom Legend trim. Deepbowl cutaway, 12-fret wide-neck slot-head.
Handmade bone saddle on the pickup, Op50 plus direct output Telex condenser microphone in the bridge.

It seems that is a well kept secret, for multiple times I've seen this question asked, but never an answer.

Public discussion of pricing issues (where FactoryWork is concerned) is something we try to refrain from . . .
