Location: Fayetteville, NC | I'm Sure yoou guys probably know just how it is when you are trying to save for a new Ovation Purchase.
It usually works out just like this:
You start Saving Cash up
Suddely the unexpected happens and you have to raid the cash you've saved up to..
repair your car
replace the Hot Water Heater
Or any other imaginable "Unexpected Expense"
So in light of This I've decided to just make up my Ovation Guitar Wish List with the knowledge That at least I'll have something to dream about and look forward to in the Future.
Ok, Here it Goes...
1) Ovation 1778 Elite LX With 8T Transparent Blue Finish.
2) Ovation Country Artist
3) Ovation Mandolin in 8T Transparent Blue Finish.
4) ovation/Applause Multi- Soundhole Uke with Pick-up.
5) Ovation Treker( something I can just pass along to my Oldest Son in case he wants to learn how to Play.
I'm sure some of you would have a longer list- But this at least are the O's I like to have.
Any of you guys have a wish list to compare??
If So Let The OFC Brethren Share It.
I'm always happy to drool over someone elses dreams!
:D :D |

Location: Fayetteville, NC | I haven't really Made my Mind Up On That. I Don't object to new if i have the funds. but if i end up finding a Used one in good condition with no cracks or dings i mght consider buying used. The others I'll have to buy new. The only way to get thet Transparent Blue Finish is do teh buy as a special order. I did that with my 1858 Elite 12 String. I love the look and the sound is OUTSTANDING! |

Two choices:
Go to your mailbox. At least every 3rd day there should be an application for a Visa or similar ball-and-chain.
Bid on this: Battle for the Baritone
Worry about Whirled Peas and your 23% interest later! If I can't have it, someone nearby should.
Or just pray and await a phenomenal answer.
