Location: Tennessee | The government trying to protect idiots from themselves. :rolleyes: I'm more of a Darwinist when it comes to stuff like this.
I doubt there will be any impact on the guitar business unless you are pulling a Milli Vanilli when playing on stage with your Taylor. |

Location: Copenhagen Denmark | I did n`t understand that much ( astroturfing ) ... are we being done again ?? .. skincream .. results may vary ..
As I understand it :
I purchase a Guitar .. it does not live up to my expectations.
The strings are not compatible , that`s why it sounds " No Good ".
The Mfg. failed ( failed ?? ) to inform me that strings are important for a good result.
Will I become a milli-o-naire then .. where/who do I sue ?? .. |

Location: Nashville TN. | I was thinking in terms of celberty player endorsements. I hear some companys are giving guitars and checks to endorcers.
If it has to be disclosed things chould change quite a bit. |

Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR | I was down at Apple Music, explaining about an Adamas II (Original issue with Signature) that they have been trying to sell for a year to another non-customer...
And I mentioned that if you see an Ovation on stage, the artist Paid for it!
I wonder if it is still the same nowadays?
BTW-- The tag sez $1400 but that Adamas might be negotiable. OP24 or FET, one or the other. |

Location: south east Michigan | Just to stay on the right side of the law my lawyer insists I post the following disclaimer.
I, (as in me), do not now or ever have received monitary payment or any other form of compensation for my endorsement of Ovation guitars.
There.. that's done.
I was concerned the tabloids were going to give me trouble. |
