Location: Within blast radius of DC | Lent my son my Model 6751 1999 Standard Balladeer 12-string, and it came back w/o the plastic rosette ring. The ring was a bit loose, due to the glue drying out (I guess).
Anyone know where I can pick one up? I was going to call the mothership, but stumbled across the news that they are closing. This bums me out to no end. I guess I've bought my last "new" Ovation. Dang.
Thanks in advance...

Location: Pueblo West, CO | Up until they closed you probably could have bought one from the MS. I was able to snag an abalone rosette for my 1619 project.
Even so, you might give them a call or shoot them an email anyway. You might just get lucky. |

Location: Within blast radius of DC | Thanks, all. I'll try both alpep and the MS.
So bummed about the end of the USA roundback. Am considering selling a kidney so I can pick up one soon from ebay or craigslist. Thinking another 12-str, or a super-shallow six. Would love to have a USA mando (mine is Korean), but those prices have gone up 3x or more in the past few years...
Would cry in my beer now, but it's still early here. Maybe at lunchtime. I'm sure the boss will understand! |

Location: Steeler Nation, Hudson Valley Contingent | I have an older rosette I was saving for a project. Shoot me a PM with your email, and I'll send some pics. I also have a super nice 12-string for sale on this forum. (And I don't mind taking payments if it helps.) HERE'S A LINK. Honestly, 12-strings don't sound or play much better than this one. |
