Here's is my Ovation Mandolin. It is in good shape and comes with a case. I've had to do a little cosmestic work on the case as the black fabric has come apart a bit. I glued in some black felt which is doing to the job. The only obvious cosmetic mark is on the top of the headstock which is clearly shown in the photos. I just replaced the battery and tested the pickup. All is as it should be.
The mandolin is not a uke. I think it is much more difficult to play due to the doubled steel strings and the small nut. It requires a pick and is really loud. Don't expect to pick this up and start playing. It is tuned different and the chord shapes are a little crazy.
I'm selling this because I just bought a more classic F-style bluegrass mandolin.
I'd like $350 plus shipping for this. I think that is a fair price. Trades? Sure. Hit me up. They sell this exact model new at my local music shop without a case for $550.00 if you're thinking about what you originally paid for your trade instrument.
Note: The white dot on the face of the mandolin is a reflection. The top is really nice.
