Welcome, darrell!

Ya came to the right place if there are any to be found. The main problem is that these books are difficult to find. And, those that have 'em usually hold onto 'em.

Good luck in your quest.

Hey Banjo,
Have you called Ghrunn to see if they have any. i looked last week but didnt ask anybody.
If you find one, send it to me and I will have Walter sign it for you unless your in close to Nashville.

Hey Banjodarrell, welcome! As one of the few banjo playing members here, let me warn you...nah, you are probably used to banjo jokes. :D

Steve,
The Book- European Tour (TBET 2009) seems to be MIA. It (supposedly) left Madrid, after Thanksgiving, bound for Michael Winters, in The Sandbox, but routed through APO New York. May have gotten hung up in a security area (probably some gitplayers around there!), before inspection & forwarding.
Haven't heard from SubPop whether the parcel was sent, or not.

Some for sale here but hefty prices.

Hello and thanks to all for the info. on the book, the welcome to the Fan Club, advice and words of encoragement shared.
I was able to locate a copy on Amazon.
I purchased my first Ovation on Christmas Eve from Guitar Center (An Elite 1868 (U.S.made) in near mint cond. for $349 + tax. My brother in law has played a 1989 collectors model for 20 years (ready to be shipped to back to the factory for a new top).
Thanks again and Blessings and Best to all for the New Year.

Iffy,

It was right beside the Asian $379 and $399+ Celebritys and a beat up $899 Yairi. I checked out the USA label inside. I couldn't believe the condition or price. The guitar center guy seemed oblivious to any differences. I actually hadn't planned on buying a guitar. I was actually looking for something for my brother in law to play to replace his 89 Colectors model he's sending back to the factory for repair. He wasn't interested. So this Christmas Eve I'm the proud owner of my first Ovatian a 1991 Elite 1868 and yes I'm planning on playing this baby and I'm very thankful.
Best-Darrell
