| Don't know if this has been posted on the OFC before but, I came across this cool forum listing individual guitars Glen Campbell has played. The links have discussions and pictures and YouTube links of Glen and his guitars.

Location: Nova Scotia, Canada | OFC member Jay Kantor has done a fantastic job with this site. There is a lot of info on the mostly custom Ovations Glen played as well as some of the other special guitars he used during his career. |

I'm kinda suprised there wasn't anything on his Adamas "Slothead". |

Location: Canada | What guitar did he use on "The Astounding 12-String Guitar of Glen Campbell" - the picture on the cover does not look like an Ovation? |

Location: Texas | “If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit.” ? W.C. Fields A lot of us are here, indirectly, because of Glen. When Glen's old forum cratered, a couple of us went in together to resurrect it for a reference point to his legacy. I wanted to highlight the guitars he had used throughout the years. Each guitar requires a little bit of research and I have to thank Paul Moody, Wayne Reid, and Dave Witco...to name a few...for helping with a lot of them. There are several notable ones that I have yet to get to. d'ovation he probably used the Gibson B25-12 It was on the front cover and the album came out during the time he was playing it - '64
