At one point they had a whole website for Ocean Acoustic. And when hey say "acoustic" they mean it - no electronics. I never heard about the surf shop story, but I had seen these advertised on line and I think the list price was $299. I think they were positioned as an entry level alternative to the MOB.

Mike, I take back all those bad things I said about your Taylors. This guitar is far worse.

If I could get it for $50 bucks, it would almost be worth having as an example of what not to do............. Wait..... No........Never mind! I think I'd rather slam my unit in a door....that would be less painful than this....

All it needs to improve it is a big eagle on the top.

Seeing as it's "Ocean Acoustic," I'd say maybe a tarpon or tuna, instead of an eagle, would be more appropriate. :D
