Location: Phoenix AZ | Sorry to stray off topic (non Ovation), but I could not resist this. I have been loking for one for a long time. Only 250 made. It arrived yesterday and is perfect. Seller talked about pick scratches, but I can't find them.
Steve Howe 00-18SH Vintage
We now return to your regularly scheduled Ovation programming.

Location: SE Michigan | That is one sweet guitar! I am curious how these little 00 body sizes sound volume-wise? Do they hold up well to srumming or are they more suited to finger picking? |

No. Any day now. Looks like it'll be a wooden box xmas around my house.

volume wise? It definately does not have the balls of a D, but it's crystal clear mellow and woody. Nice combination. Volume is more than an Ovation shallow, but less than a deep bowl. |
