Location: Portugal | My '78 Pacemaker 1115-A arrived yesterday!!!
Can't put it down, can't stop playing it!!! You can feel the quality on this thing!!!
And that headstock is just beautiful...
With the good help of Bernie I will fit a preamp and pickup in order to amplify it...
Here's some pics:

Location: Hot Springs, S.D. | Dave, that is a bit of "rough" paint that is put on at the factory. I'm pretty sure all O's have it. |

Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | Dave, there is a company that makes a non-slip pad specifically for an Ovation but most members that feel the need have just gone to the local Home Depot/Lowes/etc and bought a piece of non-slip black pad and cut it to size and applied it themselves.
I never felt the need but I know that are many who have done it. |
