Fits as a direct replacement on Ovation electric/acoustic guitars

You might be able to buy an original Ovation pickup from the factory for less.

Go Full Rate .. ( original Ovation )

Okay... I just looked one up and they cost $87 USD.

For that much money you can buy a REAL Ovation saddle.
I mean... If you have one lying around, go ahead and use it...
(I have used Artec peizos in to fix two Celebrity's)

But if you have not already bought it, why would you.
