Description
Made in 1995, this is a high-end custom legend!
The spruce top and Ovation’s most distinctive feature, the rounded relaccord body, has a thick deep-bowl design that is advantageous for live sound. The distinctive inlays on the fingerboard, soundhole ring, avalon wrapping around the body, and engraving on the bridge create a gorgeous visual as you can see. The nut width is approximately 43mm, the neck shape is V, and the scale is 641mm, slightly shorter than the long scale, showing Ovation’s attention to detail in making the scale longer than other makers.
The body has wipe scratches, scuffs, and dents. There is a crack on the soundhole ring, but there is no snagging or peeling. There is a picking scratch on the lower right side of the sound hole that looks cloudy. There is a ding on the lower left edge of the body top, the size of a grain of rice. The preamp works, but only the tuner part does not work. This is a common Ovation problem.
The neck condition is fine. The truss rod can be adjusted to loosen and is almost fully tightened. There are no string marks on the frets and about 70% of the strings are left. The current string height is adjusted at about 2.2mm on the 12F 6th string side and about 2.0mm on the 1st string side.
Overall, the tuners do not work, which is common, and the truss rod is tightened up, but playability is currently secured, and there is little use for its age. It would be nice to love it side by side with Adamas.
