I know nothing at all about the solid body Ovations but looks like fun though. Bluebird Posted 2004-10-10 9:55 PM (#176262 - in reply to #176260) Subject: Re: What's this?

Having the process explained to me while holding the product in my hand made me realize how ingenious (albeit, unnoticed/unrecognized -at it's time) an innovation these guitars really were! It'd be really cool if the next "flavor of the month" discovered one of these and they became the next UltraGP . . .
