- To the Mooney Community: Just a few recent updates: 1) Mooney authorized service centers are taking orders for the Ovation carbon cowl and we plan to start delivery in the first quarter of 2021. If you’re interested, give your service center a call and they’ll get you pricing information. Since they’ll be delivered unpainted, speak.
- Listen, it seems to me that nobody is answering the question you are asking. I have ALL Heartland Equipment, and have the 134/3 VLR (15 min. Version with reflectors and 3 facials). The bed you have is a 20 minute bed, and doesnt have reflectors or facial lamps. It is basically the same thing as a regular ovation 128, but with 6 more lamps.
A series of tables and lists that summarise serial numbers, model codes and colors of the Ovation guitars from the beginning to the end of the 20th Century.

Acoustic and Acoustic Electric
Ovation Model 134 Manual Pdf
| 1964 | Charles Kaman chose a small team of aerospace engineers and technicians, several of whom were woodworking hobbyists as well, to work to invent a new guitar. One of these was Charles McDonough, who later created the Ovation Adamas model. Kaman founded Ovation Instruments. |
| 1965 | Engineers and luthiers work to improve acoustic guitars by changing their conventional materials. The R&D team builds and tests prototype instruments. Their first prototype has a conventional dreadnought body, with parallel front and back perpendicular to the sides. The innovation is the use of a thinner, synthetic back, because of its foreseen acoustic properties. The company is moved from the aerospace facilities of Bloomfield to a new location in New Hartford. |
| 1966 | Balladeer introduced. Has a natural top, Grover Rotomatic tuners, dot fret markers, white-black-white binding, small or thin rosette with figure-8 chain link motif and grape bunch at 4 o’clock position. Less than 100 made before February 1967 move to New Hartford factory. The very early have no rosette, some have extra diamond fret markers at twelfth fret. |
| 1967 (Feb.) | Deluxe Balladeer introduced. Essentially a Balladeer with diamonds at twelfth fret, Grover Rotomatics (Balladeer now has Kluson tuners), five-ply top binding. |
| 1967 (Sept.) | Classic introduced. No fret markers, twelve frets clear of body, flat fingerboard. Josh White model introduced. Twelve frets clear of body, wider neck, steel strings, dot markers with diamonds at twelfth fret. Shaded brown sunburst top introduced. Larger floral leaf rosette appears. Model numbers introduced:
|
| 1968 (Jan.) | Model #5 12-String introduced |
| 1968 (July) | Semi-hollowbody Electric Storm series introduced Model #6 Contemporary Folk Classic appears in the catalog, but is only produced as a prototype (probably during development of Glen Campbell model), with red, green or blue bowl color option |
| 1968 (Nov.) | Glen Campbell models and shallow “Artist” bowl introduced. Four-digit model numbers with K prefix introduced:
|
| 1970 | Josh White model deleted after his death |
| 1971 (May) | K-1124 Country Artist introduced. Similar to the Josh White but with shallow bowl, fourteen-fret neck, flat fingerboard, and nylon strings, replaces Josh White as the #4 model. Acoustic electric models introduced:
|
| 1972 (June) | Solidbody electrics introduced. K prefix deleted from model names
|
| 1974 |
|
| 1976 | New top finishes introduced: Red, White, or Blue Patriot Bicentennial introduced. Limited run of 1776 guitars, fancy version of Custom Legend with drum-and-flag decal and “1776*1976” on lower treble bout. |
| 1976 (Sept.) | Adamas introduced in prototype form for artists and select dealers. The first 26 are prototypes; #27-#61 are a non-tooling production run; #62-#76 have a new headstock design and the Kaman bar neck reinforcement. Wooden epaulettes around soundholes change to a photographic Mylar material. Extensive tooling begins Sept. 1977. Dealers receive first production models in Dec. 1977. First production Adamas sold is a Model 1687, #0077-95. Suffix is guitar’s natural frequency resonance. The first Adamas 12-String is #213. Charles H. Kaman signs the labels up to #600. At #600 C.W. (Bill) Kaman II begins signing labels.
