My '78 Pacemaker 1115-A arrived yesterday!!!

Can't put it down, can't stop playing it!!! You can feel the quality on this thing!!!

And that headstock is just beautiful...

With the good help of Bernie I will fit a preamp and pickup in order to amplify it...

Here's some pics:

Glad you're happy with your guitar. You know, with the right shoes, that floor would sound real good too.....

I always wondered why they named it the Pacemaker, until I saw the pictures and my heart skipped a beat. (:

In one pick I see a non slip patch on the side. Does anyone know if those are available anywhere to purchase?

Dave, that is a bit of "rough" paint that is put on at the factory. I'm pretty sure all O's have it.

Dave, there is a company that makes a non-slip pad specifically for an Ovation but most members that feel the need have just gone to the local Home Depot/Lowes/etc and bought a piece of non-slip black pad and cut it to size and applied it themselves.

I never felt the need but I know that are many who have done it.
