OFC is home base. I come here before checking my email. |

Location: East Tennessee | I addition to this forum and the one the Captain mentioned, I have been known to post on the "Acoustic Guitar Forum".
This is the main forum I regularly read and post on.
I mean where else could I learn about "Nose Hair AND "Hemorrhoids"? :D |

Location: south east Michigan | I have visited and posted on the Martin board and Guitarnoise. It's rare that go there anymore.
I lurk at the WHO message board but I don't post much.
Nobody else accepts and understands my little quirks like the folks here.
And another thing... I never get the sense of community that we have here. Factory tours... straps.. calendars.. the wooden roundback tour.. trinket exchange... the Members Night Out CD.. the tour DVD... Phil Wong.. and the list goes on.
Let's give ourselves a pat on the the back for finding the formula to maintain and grow our common interest in Ovation guitars. |

Location: Minden, Nebraska | This is it for me. I used to be a regular on and off over the years (if that doesn't qualify as an oxymoron) on the Hamer Fan Club board, but it's a matter of time. This is it. (In addition to my full time work, my academic load is tough. I have to read approx. 3000 pages of professional reading per course AND write plenty concerning what I have read. Oops... where does the time go...) |

Location: Central Florida | Besides the OFC, the only other ones I post to are the UMGF (Martin Guitar Forum), Glen Campbell's fan forum and once in a great while, the Acoustic Guitar forum. This one tends to be home base, though. I haven't posted much lately because of my current health issues, but I still drop by and lurk everyday. |

Oh, yeah, and RitalinRUs. |

They were typically trolls or had just bought a Boxster for way too much money and did a bunch of mods to it and then wanted to know how much it was worth. There was a regular group that shared useful information. Lots of similarities to this board, now that I think about it. |

Location: 6 String Ranch | I would agreee that this is the most cooperative and communial board and the main one I go to. I just started checking out the others mostly for the resonators. There are a binch of others but after the OFC and the two I mentioned I hardly ever go to the others. The acoustic guys do take themselves quite seriously, but hey, somebody's got to. |

Location: Tennessee | I used to frequent the porsche boards, but eventually got fed up with all of the trolls ... usually young studs who would logon and question the manhood Porsche owners who wouldn't come out and race them once they got their nitrous and neon installed.
I am a member at acoustic guitar, UMGF, Hamer Museum, and Ibanez. I also spend some time on the Thing forum at samba, as well as a few forums I frequent for business purposes. But I am not habitual on any of them ... for whatever reason I misfit in here better than most other places. |

Location: Flushing, MI | Being a single dad of three kids, I don't have much time to spend on too many message boards. I spend the most time right here, and at the TDPRI - which the "Telecaster Discussion Page Re-Issue" board. Great guys over there, and some semi-famous ones drop by from time to time. Unfortunately just the very utterance of the word "Ovation" can get you into trouble. I overlook it.
There's also Bluestalk.com to scratch my blues itch, but I don't get by there too much anymore.
One of the guys from the TDPRI has started an excellent guitar praise and worship forum. I don't get by there too much anymore either, but so far it's been about the best Christian based guitar forum that I've seen yet. |
