1 Owner Guitar!
Ovation 1718-X Prototype
Serial Number 091791 (which is the only Elite where these numbers translate to the actual date). Amazing, USA Built, Acoustic Guitar. Everything about this guitar is mint. Incredible condition for an instrument that sold in 1991. Unplayed condition!
How Does It Play
I own and run a 1 person guitar customization & repair shop, and sometimes my customers need help selling their instruments! Before listing, I give a thorough setup to every instrument that comes through my shop (check out my technical restoration videos online by google searching Richie's Guitar Shop). From truss rod to nut slots, fretwork to saddle height, you can rest assured I have this one dialed in. I also do a thorough inspection and check all electronics and hardware to make sure nothing slips by!
Set Up with Daddario Phosphor Bronze Strings 11-52.
