I remanufacture some custom PGs if you want. Others may have something to toss in too.

| Hi Rolo
I have a new original pickguard from Kaman which I do not use. It is white. I give it to you for the same price I payed, US$ 50.--. I will take over the shipping from switzerland to usa. Paypal possible. Interested?
Nice to have you on board! |

| It is for the small pickups like Viper and Preacher. That is why I cannot use it. My Breadwinner has the old and larger pickups. |

Location: Marlton, NJ | Woody - I saw the pictures in your album - the pickguards are beautiful! I'll be looking for one for the Preacher that I am hoping to restore/customize. What does a poor slob have to do to obtain one of the masterpieces? |

Location: Marlton, NJ | Woody - I'll try to get a few pictures soon. The guitar is already in pieces - neck, body, and a box full of parts. I was originally considering trying to restore it (original pickups, pickguard, etc.) but after trying to locate the original parts and seeing some of the customized guitars I would rather go the customization route. The neck has a crack up near the head - I'm not sure how bad - and alot of dings on the body. It should be a fun project.
Thanks for your help. |

| Most Breadwinner guards that I have seen are quite a bit larger like the dots show on this picture....Perhaps someone knows why that is?
I am also looking for some touch-up black hi-gloss Ovation Lacquor in order to repair the huge dings in the lower body portion. Hope someone could advise me on this.
Thanx all again

Location: Upper Left USA | Bad news, Ovation didn't use Lacquer. It is a Poly euro epoxy and it is tough as a bowling ball but once cracked nearly impossible to patch.
Super glue or inlay epoxy for larger sections but it won't be perfect.
The smaller PGs came later. I think once the Limited came out they switched to the one smaller size.
Then... |
