This guitar is in excellent condition and comes with the original hard shell case and certificate of authenticity.

In 1982 Ovation began a long standing tradition that remains today - the issuing of an annual "Collectors Series" guitar.  These annual offerings were generally used as launch vehicles for new designs, materials, technologies and manufacturing. Over the years, the Collectors Series was the launch vehicle for such ideas as on-board tuners, supershallow bowls, new pre-amp designs, guitar geometries such as 16 fret clear, parlor sized guitars, new and exotic wood tops such as maple, redwood and koa.  New cosmetics such the inlaid epaulets and abalone trim, and even the new contour shape bowl.  For the 1986 release, both a six string and 12 string were made in the classy aged white finish shown.
