nice to meet whomever reads this. i have been owning and picking ovation guitars since 1985. i own 3 ovations. a 1985 1869 black custom legend, a 1981 totally acoustic balladeer 1111, and a 1967 balladeer which is just one sick axe.

Welcome aboard, geneo!

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

...welcome.

Go here Ovation Fan Clup Social Site and join that site. It allows for the uploading of pictures and much more. It is the sister site to this one. You can then just add the link to those pictures here.

Cheers!

Just outside Hooterville, whoops, I mean Syracuse, geneo. Far enough where my only connection with the City is three quarters of my taxes.

I've kind of lost my accent, but I love to remind southerners I'm part of the Army of Occupation. They like that a lot.

You're in VA Beach? Do you gig?

Welcome, Geneo;
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

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.

Thanks! 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
