Not sure who this hack is, but can anyone identify the guitar? It's got an Ovation logo on the headstock.. Is it a celebrity? (the guitar, not the player)

Don\'t Fear the Reaper

Never an endorser of Ovation officially, but many of the BOC tunes were written using this Ovation.

I may have posted this one before...
It's still funny...

Hack??
I thought the guy was pretty good...nice voice. The last 30 seconds of this video was great. Better than 95% of people I see on youtube.

Gawd, is that guy still clinging to his 15 minutes? Aren't they supposed to be dead from an overdose or teaching their kids to do drugs on reality TV or something?

Seems a good head really.

isn't his name sumptin' like Greg N. Dharma?

No discernable skunk stripe on the headstock. Does this mean it was not made in CT?
Never been sure if that was a giveaway or not.

Well I just got the word...

"It's an Applause 3/4 size guitar, very cheap, shallow bowl."

I was a little thrown by the Ovation logo... but there ya go.

He got it in the early 2000's "just to have laying around the house."

I thought it was an Applause, too. It looks bigger than 3/4 size to me, though.

We also have an Applause AE-128 and it is a nice sounding guitar, especially plugged in.

Someone should offer to swap it out for a US O, eh?


AFTER he has the whole band sign it, of course....
