hey roundbackers(and contourbackers too),

can anyone tell me...

is there a difference in the machines from say a balladeer/legend to an al di or adamas model? besides the buttons...

are these the machines ovation uses, (maybe the generic version of these with the ovation stamp)

any pics?

Don't know by model, but some cheaper O's use Ping tuners and the more expensive ones use Schallers. I think the post holes are the same, but Klusons and Weaverlys are smaller. Don't know about Gotoh tuners. Dave

The key is where the fastening screw goes. The post holes are standard as Dave says.
