Applause by Ovation AE 148 Applause Ovation with hard case Sound output has been confirmed. There is no noise or crackling that would interfere with playing. Please check the condition of the item in the photos as it is a used item. Based on my amateur assessment, there is no neck warping. There is plenty of fret life remaining. The truss rod has not been checked. There are no cracks or other damage, nor is the bridge lifting. Since the seller has not used it themselves, the frequency of use is unknown. Please adjust the pitch, string height, etc. to your liking. When shipping, we will carefully pack it with bubble wrap and cardboard. At the recommendation of Yamato Transport, we may loosen the strings slightly before shipping. The set contents are all that are shown in the photos. Due to its age, there is little information available, and the model number is an estimate based on the shape, etc. If there is a discrepancy between the description and the photos, the content of the photos takes precedence.
