Location: Kent, England | It sure doesn't look right on an ovation. Frankly I've never been convinced about the need for a pick guard. I play all styles and I've got no discernable marks or scratches on my ovation from picks even after 17+ years of playing it.
Was it a feature or just an add on either subsequently or "factory fitted"?
Cheers
