OVATION APPLAUSE AE128 FOR SALE SERIAL NUMBERS
The Ovation website lists all serial numbers and their corresponding dates of manufacture with three-digit serial numbers ranging from 1966 to 1973 and six-digit serial numbers occurring from 1972 to 2013. Ovation makes it easy for a guitar owner to determine the manufacture date of his guitar. And FWIW, I think they called that color blue, not green. I'd almost be willing to bet your guitar was made in the 1980s, although it is possible it could have come from the 1990s. I had a late 70s Applause back when they were new, and they didn't offer that model - it was still the AA-14 aluminum necked models that were in the line back then, and they moved to wood fingerboards a few years later - about 1982/83 IIRC. THANKS!!I can't give you specifics, but I can tell you for certain that guitar wasn't made in the late 70s. Would love to clarify this and even find a print ad or brochure with this guitar. Ovation date-finder says 1978 for this serial number but I've also been told that production in Korea did not occur until the early 1980's.
