Just borrowed a VXT for a few weeks. Im assuming the pot nearest to the jack is the electric/acoustic blend, but which way is which? I assume the others are volume and tone (Dont be mean, I haven't had a play with it yet)

Also, what's the toggle switch do?

Hey Muz... Ovation Tribute has a VXT Manual





Or, you could just read it here since the images actually came out correctly...

Except all the controls are upside down in Oz...

Between Jerome's site and Arthur's support all the real questions you can't find at Ovation get covered, amazing.

I've noticed that the piezo sound from the VXT is much better from the audience perspective than the player. The VXT is truly a versatile guitar. When they first came out, everybody complained that they didn't work and sounded terrible when they did work. For the life of me I can't figure out why so many dealers screwed up the demos and displays because the controls are relatively simple. The marketing of the VXT was a disaster. The electronics on mine (one of the first customs ever made of this model - I think Beal may have beat me by a few days) have been perfect since the day it arrived. Thanks again, Al.

But seriously Jim. Are you winding me up? I just went and opened the case for the first time since leaving Andrew's and there's no owners manual in there, just the stereo jack thingie.

Probably in 'The Wizz's' sock drawer along with my capo.

I found the bag of picks. It was where I put it so I wouldn't forget to bring it.
