Location: The Great Pacific Northwest		I get a kick that people still put "The GP was the very last solid body to bear the Ovation name."....

The VXT has the Ovation name on it :(

Love that transparent wine... great color.

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest		The bodies and necks came from Korea. Assembled in Moosup CT with Schaller and Dimarzio hardware.

I am not clear if the necks were set in Korea and the guitar painted there as well, of if the bodies and necks were shipped to the US and set in CT. The UltraGS they sent the necks and bodies to CT for assembly, so I would assume they may have done the same with the GP's.

Not sure where they were finished, although I may have the info... I can't seem to find it at the moment.
