Priceless isn't quite the right word. It's mostly BS. Free, because no one would pay for it. |

Location: Budd Lake, NJ | A warm welcome to you from the female-folk;
We may be few in number, but we like it here, too. Everything you've ever wanted or needed to know about Ovations can be gleaned from here (along with oodles of stuff we will inform you about just in case, at some rare point in time, you may require said knowledge) ;) ; if you've lurked for any length of time, you already know how special this place is--if you don't know it yet, you will :) .

Wally Not quite, Wally - most of what I play is acoustic blues. It may lull folks to sleep (right Gway?) but it's what I like.

I love those MPC guitars. A friend here locally has one. An electra was very close to being my first electric. It wasn't the MPC, but the "Futura" model, a pointy guitar. |
