Went out to dinner and listened to a acoustic duo for a bit.
They had quite a little set up. A Bose L1, all wireless, nice chest high mixer set up, a boat load of stomp boxes, and about 6 guitars. :eek:

They were on a break as we walked out and a guy made note of my Ovation shirt and said, "Ovations... nice guitars". BTW.... he was wearing a Taylor shirt.

Anyway, he said he had 3 Ovations at home and the oldest, a '78 needed some attention. I suggested he call Kim. Turns out he talked to Kim the other day about not being able to get his O working with his wireless setup. Kim gave him some suggestions and said if that did not work they would come up with a special pick-up that would.
He spoke very highly of our favorite service department.

The guys owns 3 Ovations and only one Taylor. He's okay enough in my book.

It was a nice place called The Stoney Creek Roadhouse just outside Stoney Creek Metropark.

Kim can fix anything.

Including a door that's obviously too small.

My first UST was a thinline I put into a Martin I had, no pre-amp just the unbuffered pick-up, which I ran to an outboard pre-amp. If I tried a wireless between the pick-up and the pre-amp it sounded lousy; hard wired it was fine.

I'm talking about something way above my pay grade here but the guy said he had trouble getting the guitar and the wireless device... atinuatated. (Ah-tin-you-a-ted).

I just nodded my head up & down as if to say, "Oh yeah, of course, that would be a problem" :confused:

Attenuation. Think of it as the opposite of amplification.
