We could have a contest to see who finds the most screw-ups in this craigslist ad. My favorite is "Kerman Music Product" :eek:

A potbelly is essential to playing an Ovation. Either you have one already and play a contour bowl to compensate, or you get one with the guitar. But either way, it's non-negotiable.

So that explains it! :confused: And here I thought I was just getting old. I'll have to keep this knowledge from SWMBO, else she might want me to get rid of some "potbellies" besides the one I carry all the time. :p

This one\'s almost as bad. Interesting color scheme on the guitar - didn't someone post a pic of those bubbles awhile back, around the time of the last Open House?

That's the snakeskin finish. I believe Music Mike has one.

This is the raindrop finish.

That's the lizard or Dragon finish...actually this is the one from three months ago that had the headstock break (in two)...terrible repair...I called them on it after they sent the pictures to me...its a shame because its a rare guitar...it is NOT a Celebrity...That word and "Made in USA" don't mix...These are Thunderbolt's and are really nice guitars...subdued acoustically but really shine plugged in (OP-24). Yes, I own this one:

Currently in in rehab at the Mothership: too much pineapple I think...lol

"My daughter plays and has too many guitars and need to sell one."

Is that her opinion, or yours? :mad: There's a mistake right there! :cool:

T-bolt sound amazing plugged in.
Very very fast necks.
I love handing mine to other players and see thier face as they realize it plays better than most strats or les pauls.
They record very well with a condenser mic.

Is 'aqustic' a misspelling of 'acoustic' — or is this perhaps one of those rare Ovations which can be played underwater?

They can all be played underwater, but your fingers get wrinkly.
