salve amici, da quando mi sono iscritto inizio ad essere sempre più curioso. Vi chiedo una domanda. se si volesse replicare una ovation si trovano template della tavola armonica con misure ecc...
Considerate che mi sono avvicinato a questo mondo da poco e vorrei dilettarmi in qualche lavoretto/ esperimento per vedere cosa ne viene fuori.
grazie mille e buona giornata tutti dall'italia.

I suggest you correspond and ask your questions in the BFLG forum. There is a group of people there who know a lot about Ovation instruments. Topics of construction, specifications and tools occur there often. Good luck!

hi friends, since I signed up I start to be more and more curious. I ask you a question. if you want to replicate an ovation you will find templates of the soundboard with measures etc ...
Consider that I have recently approached this world and I would like to dabble in some work / experiment to see what comes out.
thank you very much and good day everyone from Italy.

Ciao Andrea!

Non ci sono piani o modelli disponibili per i diversi modelli di tutori usati da Ovation, come il tutore a X usato su Balladeer, il tutore A usato uno, il tutore Legend o Quintad usato sulle élite.

Quando ho ritoppato le Ovations, ho copiato le parentesi usando i top originali che ho tolto dalle chitarre su cui stavo lavorando.

Capisco cosa intendi per dilettarsi. Ho fatto lo stesso, io stesso.

Hello Andrea!

There are no plans or templates available for the different brace patterns Ovation used such as their X-brace used on the Balladeer, the A-brace used one the Legend or Quintad brace used on the Elites.

When I've re-topped Ovations, I copied the braces using the original tops that I took off the guitars that I was working on.

I understand what you mean about dabbling. I've done the same, myself.
