Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | I just got word that the roadshow is coming to the great Pacific Northwest.
[list]
[*]November 2, 2010 @ Hugo Helmer Music, Burlington, WA
[*]November 3-4, 2010 @ Ted Brown Music, (TBA Eastern and Western WA locations)
[*]November 5, 2010 @ Bellevue American Music, Bellevue, WA
[*]November 6, 2010 @ Apple Music, Portland, OR
[/list]
I think we can put a "gathering" together in a month... nothing fancy... but I have the space, and can get more. Hugo Helmer is 5 minutes from my house.
I have not contacted the local rep yet (I just found out) but will. We may have some interesting pieces to bring to the event at the store.
For those not from around here.. THIS IS A BIG DEAL !!!! Ovations are few and far between. Most of us with even small collections own more Ovation guitars than probably all of the Ovations in stores in Washington state at this time put together.
It looks like they are hitting EVERY music store in the state aside from Guitar Center and a couple of small shops. Very Cool !!!!! |

Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | I'll be watching for the Eastern Washington locations. We have a Ted Brown's Music in both Yakima & Kennewick. I will also pray for no snow on Snoqualmie Pass, around that time! November 2-to-4 is midweek, unfortunately. Portland on a Friday.
Would be great if there was a stop somewhere on a Saturday. |

(There weren't nuthin' on their website)
I gotta stop in and see Chuck anyway, there haven't been any Ovations in the Acoustic Store's front windows the last few times that I rode by there on the train. |

Maybe they'll come through Boise on the way back, but if they don't stop at GC, there aren't any other Ovation dealers here anymore. |

I have a bunch of relatives in Portland, though, and the weekend works better. I didn't know Ted Brown was in Tacoma. We still haven't visited our daughter who is going to school there. Lots of birds to kill on this roadshow. I will have to make at least one. |

To answer your question, yes, there may be at least two of us. If I go to the one in Portland, I might talk a brother or two into coming with me. |

I will have to contact them for the specific hours-of-activity.
Interesting, Burlington-Richland-Tacoma-Bellevue-Portland. They are really blanketing the area, it seems.

Miles, it must be nice to have a decent Ovation dealer so close. I guess I have huckleberries, though. |

However... check out the Web page and "Tour" of their store. It is a VERY nice store, and very nice staff. http://www.hugohelmermusic.com/ |

Obviously I'd plan to go to the American Music Bellevue event. Besides, that's the store that started it all with me on Ovation acoustics.
I had my UKII for 20+ years before I bought my first roundback acoustic. I actually went in there to buy a Taylor or Breedlove, but tried the 1778LX and fell in love with the playability as well as the tone.
Then I joined this place.. That's when the disease really began to take hold.
So is anyone coming to Bellevue? I'd be open to going to Tacoma, but American Music is a 4 minute drive for me. |

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | Well the older guitars would be fun if we have a get-together at my house, but the event is all about the , current, NEW and future offerings of Ovation and I'd like to support that effort, especially up this way (Skagit Valley) cause while the music community seems to recognize that Ovation makes great guitars, you don't see many, and likely the only way to get one, is to order it.
I will have a display of Rick Epting's 12-String there. It's an amazing instrument that was played pretty much every day for many years. Cannon doesn't even begin to describe the tone and volume of this thing. But that's just going to be there cause Rick was a popular local celebrity, although he's probably not like me using that term. I have heard so much about him and his life that I'm very sad I never got to meet him, and yet I feel like I have.
Anyway.... I'm looking forward to seeing what they have on the truck!!! |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I'm thinking the same way, Miles. I love to see all the old guitars as well as the new ones, but this is obviously an effort by Ovation to promote its new products. That's part of the reason I'd bring the 2078 or the OFC or the LAV Koa--to show off what Ovation can do presently, but I expect Ovation can do that without our help. No one would want this to blow up into a "didn't they make some great guitars back in the day"? sort of thing.
In that respect, I probably shouldn't bring anything and just play with the new Ovations, but somebody else might like to play the 2078. Maybe we could get together on Saturday and play some guitars. I'll bet that SWMBO and daughter will be out shopping and I could get away for several hours. Long enough for you guys to give me some lessons.
Damon, shipping it would scare me as much as taking it on the plane.
Still no word on when they start? I need to make plane reservations. |

I hope the Ovation one starts a bit later and goes past their usual closing time of 7. |

I figure Mom and Daughter will probably end up in a mall somewhere Saturday afternoon and I'll need to find something else to do. I should probably check to see what they have planned other than visiting her school. |

It was really nice to see Ovations in town, and I think they sold a few guitars too. There were a lot of impressed faces. The iDea preamp seemed to be the largest hit as we have a lot of singer/songwriter types in the area. |

Adamas 2080

Or should I bring others?

It makes some sense to bring something newer, so it doesn't lead to a discussion of the good old days and discontinued models, unless part of the sales pitch is going to be how they can build a custom model just like one of the discontinued models.
Maybe I should have gone to the one in Richland. I wouldn't have been overwhelmed by the show of talent by everyone but me. |

As for presence of talent, yes, I was the at the nadir. Some young woman of, likely, early 20-ish, grabbed hold of a 2080 "one-off", and sounded like Al Dimeola- "I've been playing about 5 years". Crap, just shoot me. |

I now have a brand new black custom elite contour to go with the black adamas I bought from al earlier today, which matches the black 2080, then there's the black al dimeola and of course the black vxt...
How much more black could my collection be? It wasn't so long ago I remember saying I didn't like black guitars.
I guess the saying's true... once you've had black... |

They had a great presentation. And I learned something about my Adamas guitar...
Adam PUNCHED his... And I have been concerned about taking mine outside?
Then they did the video thing and I played... And I was skeered.
They say that they will put it up on the Facebook or YouTube (whichever) in a coupla weeks.
Only four other acts played, a Duo, and three other single performers.
One jar-head was really good, and he didn't need amplification!
He said that he learned to push from his diaphragm while singing Cadence.
Since I sang they gave me a T-shirt.
But it has a Celebrity on it! :eek: See?
The only other OFC'r there was David (DVD), and he sends his regards. |

The Wood-Top, and a Black cutaway... I played a Red cutaway for the Video.
None of them had Manhole Covers!
Adam said that they've learned that they sound better that way.
I also played a TX for a moment to see if it was drastically different from a T.
Since I couldn't do a side-by-side, I cannot give you an opinion on that one.
But it is always fun to play expensive guitars. |

| You can access the innards thru the pre-amp hole by popping out the pre-amp and removing the can. That works just fine for simple things like accessing the jack(s) to tighten/remove them. Of course, if you need to repair the braces or some such you'll need special tools (that they have at the factory). |

(He is also carrying around a Celebrity that they shot 32 times with a 45 caliber pistol)
I wasn't sure that he would relate to me wanting to go under the hood and tinker with stuff.
The stance that they had been taking in the presentation is that Adamii are almost indestructible.
And I just received a two photos from the Roadshow...
This the the Marine with the booming voice, he was gonna grab that Honeyburst Celebrity to play, but I said
"Dude! Use the $2500 Adamas! Always use the expensive guitar when you can."
And here is me with one of them expensive guitars. I was getting ready to play, and they already a Red Adamas plugged-in so I just used that one.
But I came decked-out in the Club Colors...

Actually it is a $5000 custom Adamas, but they were offering them for $2500.

I really wish I could have made to PDX and I wish they could have made it to the Silverdale Ted Brown.
Wishes, fishes, whatever...
As far as access to the innards goes - the ratio of room needed is proportional to the size of your Hamfist and the diameter of your Forearm Calf muscle...
About One point smidge to One... have to check with Mr. Templeman for the exact figures. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I took the camera, but forgot to take it out of the backpack. Very nicely done. I really wanted that wood-topped Adamas, but left it for someone else. Good performances by the three, including Damon, performers. I should have, but figured I'd get out of there without embarassing myself preserved for posterity.
Too bad we had stereotypical Seattle weather until today, then flew back into it in Boise.
I think even SWMBO was impressed by the presentation. |
