Location: Bay Area, CA | Sold, can't wait to get her, my second VXT, and in natural no less. I sold the black VXT I had here on the forum, and missed her. Curious, what are you buying? |

Location: michigan | Glad you got it instant karma.
needed the funds quick, otherwise, I would be keeping this. I am sure I will replace it later (probably not a natural one though). The mahogany on this one is amazing.
1962 epiphone olympic SOLD
VXT Sold
Traveler Travel guitar SOLD
Thanks so far, other pieces are still available.
glad an OFC person got the VXT ... It doesn't hurt as bad : ) ... |

Location: michigan | I sold everything but the guild JF30 (kinda wanted to keep that one). Thanks everyone. The Ovation went to an ovation fan club member, the heritage went to a heritage owners club member. Other stuff moved pretty fast. Love it when a plan comes together ... |

Location: Bay Area, CA | The VXT arrived today, and she's a beauty. I had never seen one in natural before, and cannot understand why Ovation did not make more--I mean this is a stunner. The woods are just gorgeous, the nicest I've seen on an Ovation, and I've seen a lot of them. Does anyone know the story of the natural option, as far as I know it was never advertised--is this a special custom order?
She reminds me of some of the best USA Hamer's I've owned, the quality of the woods and construction are identical (and I expect that is no coincidence). Seriously, the body, neck, and top woods, binding, and finish are the same as on the Newport I miss so much now. It is a shame to hide these woods behind black paint, no matter how well applied.
I dropped the action down to the floor, with nary a buzz, tweaked the intonation a bit, and plugged in. Great electric tone through my hot rod deluxe from the '59 duncans, and some nice acoustic tones off the Fishman; that bridge is easy to tweak too. Even unplugged she sounds great for practicing quietly. If you have been on the fence, give one of these VXT's a try, you might like it.
I cannot say enough good things about rhoadsscholar, a real pleasure to do business with: fast shipment, packed well, great communications, a very highly recommended OFC member. This one is in good hands, I thank you, and hope all is well. |

Location: michigan | Glad it arrived safe and sound (never know about UPS). I am going to miss it. I used it for our Christmas Eve service. Great combo guitar. I needed some funds for a real estate transaction here in Michigan (the only thing that depreciates faster than Ovation guitars is Michigan Real Estate). All is well and I hope our offer is accepted (fingers crossed). The good news is I was also able to get my dream guitar (A 30th anniversary CUSTOM LEGEND). Cost a bit more than I sold the VXT for, buy I am jazzed about the Custom Legend (only 300 made). Legend has it that some folks on this board have more than one (that is the way I roll). I'll settle for one for now. (I have twin boys who are now 20 so I hope to get two of everything I think is great before the show is over ... I am sure I will replace the VXT at some point, but wanted to bid and win the custom legend before I let anyone know (IT IS ON ITS WAY). Report forthcoming .... |
