Paul I received the trinket and you're right about the color...it's more of a reverse color scheme, but it does have gold tuners. ;) |

and before anyone else sais it... yes, I agree that a matching strap would be excellent. |

With the new coated strings you dont have to change them as often.

Got mine today, immediately replaced my tongue stud with it! Only problem, spinache gets hung on it and looks like I have a mouth full of seaweed. But at least every time I open my mouth, something good comes out. Rock on Fan Club.
Thanks, Miles. |

Very professional looking. Now that they have hit the Left Coast may I ask how many were in the batch?
Should we assign numbers as well? |

This reminds me of waiting for a package coming from Battle Creek, Michigan. Anybody else remember waiting for their Tony The Tiger baking soda powered submarine to arrive? |

Location: Tennessee | I got mine today, too. Awesome. This is my second ... I got my first one when I was at the factory. I plan on taking it with me to the OFC jam ... sure hope I can carry it on the plane as I don't want to leave it in the hands of the baggage folks for fear of damaging this beautiful piece of Ovation history. |

Those of you waiting an extra day or so in the US... please spare a thought for those of us on an Island near the UK - add two days to standard UK postage times.
I'll not start panicking until Christmas has been and gone.

I think maybe your trinket is stalled in customs as they ponder whether it is a gift or purchase and whether any endangered trees were harmed in its production. But you will find the wait worth it. |

I would gladly do some concrete work for you...as long as you will come and get my pool (or black lagoon--not sure which it is)--ready for the summer. I think I saw the Loch Ness Monster in it last night...or was that just a hallucination from all the sweat in my eyes?
Have we got a deal? |

Go left to the OFC Store - Look for the special offer if available.
Moat or Pool - all in the eye of the beholder! |

| Looks like I got the UK's first. Arrived this am. It is currently coming up to temperature, although the fine quality gig bag seems to have protected it well.
Many thanks Miles.
I'm off to get my ear pierced. |
