Location: Hot Springs, S.D. | I've been looking and looking for the right guitar for him. He has outgrown his G Series Tak. His birthday was in April, but I didn't get him anything because I just couldn't find the one that did it for him. Then one day my friend Patch called me with an offer I couldn't refuse.
A beautiful 2002 Collector's!
Jarrett came in this morning and went right to it. He was stunned. It sounds even better than it looks. Surprizing bass and volume, but oh those treble strings. They ring almost as pretty as my LX. He is so happy right now, and I feel a lot better knowing that "my son" now owns a beautiful Ovation. I just put some pictures up on my ning page.
So I want to send out a huge thank you to Patch! Nothing is more important to me than Jarrett, and you have helped me to make him happy. Now, what else have you got? :cool: |

What a wonderful gift! I'm sure that he'll always treasure that Ovation.
I couldn't get the pics to post here; parenthesis error. May be the (270) rotation...
So ya'll can go HERE . |

Location: Steeler Nation, Hudson Valley Contingent | That's the third 02 that's passed through my hands, and each one was superb! The playability along the entire neck is just...killer! And the factory obviously has some patent-pending panel-master juice that makes their laminated tops flat out SING! I've had a 99C, three 02C's, and now own a Bubinga Custom Elite, and each of them has sounded way better than any lam-top has a right to.
Alison, how about a clip or two of Jarrett making us all look bad? ;) |

Thanks for the kind words everyone. Jarrett is one happy kid right now, but his "mom" is even happier! |

Location: Hot Springs, S.D. | As pretty as it looks, it SOUNDS even better. It has that crystal clarity like the LX. Every note is so distinct. It's a good thing Jarrett wanted it or I would've probably kept it for myself. |
