Spend some time, tell us about your Ovations; compare and contrast; post pics, and swim out to the deep end of the pool! |

The old Balladeers are still my favorites; have an early 70's Balladeer that's the ol' lady in my collection (which is considerably larger than when I started here...) This is a great place in so many ways; take advantage of the wealth of information the "Ovation Nation" has to offer--but, unless you're really disciplined, you might want to avoid the "For Sale" section. ;) :D

i do agree with your love for the old acoustical balladeers with no electronics. both my 67 and my 81 have no electronics in them and they both project like a cannon. thanks Karen for the heads up ill stay away from the for sale area when i feel weak

Michelle hi michelle, r u from the hudson valley... woodstock area Geneo, I'm actually from the Capital District. It's just that Woodstock is one of my favorite places to visit. I love the eclectiveness of it all. Most times I've been there, there has always been a guitar player playing on a street corner.

I must warn you though, Geneo, about the Poughkeepsie area. It is a danger to your bank account, as Patch and his collection of beautiful guitars are in that area.
I bought my 02 Collectors from Patch, and it put a small dent in my emergency guitar fund! :D
