Location: Phoenix AZ | Very cool. Wish I was in PA. Maybe Rick is on a road trip to Al's. All the crap that Al can't sell gets put in the van and on to the Medley event? Or is it onward to make a drop off of older than dirt Ovation stuff in Atlanta, Phoenix, San Diego??? Maybe Rick could also give away some of those OFC Audio CD's that were made??? Al, you've got a bunch of those, right? |

Location: south east Michigan | Our "real" local music store has had a Martin event and a Gibson event in the last 3 months. I am going to lobby the owner to sponser an Ovation event.

Location: 6 String Ranch | lobby hard, these are always worthwile events, although store owners hate to spend the money usually. It usually requires that they have a good inventory on hand too. |

Thank you very much for taking part in events like this! This is what it should be! Joe everyman will be able to taste and see for themselves. when pulled off there will be a lot of genuine excitement and appreciation for the store.
These are steps in the right direction for the "O" Team as well!

Location: NJ | when I ran my guitar show Ovation would come in and do a restring clinic. They sometimes sent me a guitar for a giveaway.
If I ever find a new location for the guitar show it would be perfect for one of these clinics. |

My pleasure! We're doing an event per week for 50 weeks to celebrate 50 years in business. The manufacturers have been great! Ovation, Martin, Collings, Gibson, Goodall, SantaCruz, and lots more... all doing clinics for us. |
