Ovation Guitars
I have 2 guitars, a fender tele and an ovation bass - how do I find out how much they're worth?
I have serial numbers for both but would like to find out what their market value and re-sale values are before listing them for sale ... would appreciate any info on how to find this information.
Hi there,
Humongously variable possibilities here.
Both these companies have gone through many diverse changes since their inception decades ago. The value of your instruments will depend largely upon some sort of blend between where they fit in this trajectory [what vintage], condition, and current market demand.
Unless they're of very recent vintage, not an easy question to get a definitive answer!
Try the home websites of Fender and Ovation for serial number stuff, google telecaster fan club or ovation fan club, so on and so forth [google telecaster serial number, ovation bass serial number, etc].
One quick but tricky idea [not always a clear indicator], do a search on Ebay of the model you have, look in "completed listings", and see what someone paid for one.
But before that you will need to find out the vintage, which is back to the serial number.
Hope you can find what you need.
