Location: Capital District, NY, USA Minor Outlying Islands | I remember someone cooking up something similar years ago, but I have to assume that if it didn't become a common add-on, its not really something you want to have.
And for 20 bucks I can rent 1.5 hours worth of studio time ... let's see the wife is going out satuday ... I may make some noise this weekend fellas. |

Location: cincinnati, ohio | Years ago (like back in the Ice Age of 1971), they used to come from the factory with a little pad like that installed. There was one on my 1971 Balladeer and one on my 1974 Pacemaker. Both of them lasted about 3 weeks. I've never really noticed a problem with the guitars slipping, and I've been playing Ovations since '71. Most of the time I stand. When I DO sit, though, it just hasn't been an issue. If you have a problem, adjust you strap so the guitar doesn't hang as low.
And don't wear satin pants! |

Location: cincinnati, ohio | By the way, the PADS lasted three weeks. I still have both guitars, and they just get better with age.
Hmmmmm....walnut shells. I have this giant oak tree in front of my house that drops about 800,000 metric tons of acorns a year. Would those work, Moody? |

Check with any shoe store. |

Location: cincinnati, ohio | That was just a tongue in cheek warning-- I can't be responsible for your inability to keep your Ovation on your lap if you wear satin pants--especially if you "satin" some paint. |
