Thank you so much again Iffy for helping own a part of Ovation History.

  

 

I have not had a chance to play a lot of High end Ovations, like the Adamas I or II or any acoustics from the 70's and 80's, but I have played old Fenders, Martins and Gibsons, but this is the finest 6 string acoustic/electric guitar I have every played. The sound is so warmy, bright and full of color.  Again thank you my dear friend Iffy, for helping me make my dreams come true.

That guitar is not just part of Ovation history. A 37 year old A braced deep bowl Legend is a GREAT sounding guitar. Be happy. You now own a high end Ovation -- one of the best........

Congrats. I know you've been waiting on that for a long time. Nutmeg is my favorite Ovation color stain.

I will Patch, with out Iffy, I would not have my Preacher, Viper, Adamas 12 string and now the Patriot. It is difficult to express how happy I am right now. I Love this guitar!!!!! Thanks everyone, I can't wait to record with this sound. I want to make sure I get a good mic to capture all this guitar has to offer.

Congrats Kitmann. My wife bought one for my 50th in April and I haven't put it away since. Looking forward to hearing your recording with it.

 I doubt any of us are paying much attention to the grass!

I'm sure many of the Official OFC Lawn Critic Board were, in fact as I was, seething about that grass. My vote is to let it slide just this one time...
