  Location: Munich, Germany | One of those Custom Legends has been hanging in a german shop for an eternity and I could have had it for a great price - didn't pull the trigger since I already had too much guitars. Should have bought it, one of the greatest Specials ever.  
  
Best regards,

  Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | One of the few models I was really hankering for and never could land.  Came close one year but missed it by a few hundred.  Should’ve paid the price.  What better guitar to play at a 4th of July picnic gig? |

  Location: GATLINBURG TENNESSEE :) | HA!.... I wasn’t able to get back and read the responses until now!...  The reason I have always wanted one, is for playing on all the patriotic holidays at our church.  We’re still playing in a controlled atmosphere on Sundays and practice on Wednesdays for our TV broadcast and podcast services. After going through cancer treatments and getting real sick, I lost enough weight and recovered, to a point where I am able to wear my Marine Corps dress blues on Memorial Day and Veterans Day.  I thought it would be cool to play that flag guitar at the sam time (:

  Location: NJ | fun fact..... As you may or may not know Takamine was distributed by kaman music Corp.   
Toby Kieth plays a Takamine made in japan with the American Flag painted on it most likely the same as the one on the Ovation
