Joined: July 2005 Posts: 1609 Location: Colorado | OK - I'm dreaming here - but I figured I'd ask....I need a beater to play around the dogs, cats, and in the snow on the porch. Looking for nylon string, deep bowl classical....older broken in model...with mojo and sustain...non cutaway...don;t care about scratches ...just need it solid, and to sound great. 2" or 1 7/8 - doesn;t matter...curved or flat - doesn't matter. I don;t care if it is an A/E or not....I have Shafer's old EA63 to plug in which is phenomenal...prefer sunburst on body and on slotted headstock....the darker the sunburst the better...don't really need a case except for shipping...I'm thinking 3 hunnert or so....will also send fiddy to OFC to keep the Al fund going....Is it out there...and should I keep dreaming? mark | ||

I believe I have a case... let's say shipping plus $100 and it's yours! character, yes! but very sound. http://www.ovationfanclub.com/megabbs/photos/photo-thumbnails.asp?albumid=1132&useralbum=2043

FYI, I have an Academy, blond top (No, Steve, it's not the Blue Moon Academy) that's impervious to the weather, with case, pictured in the BFLG folder, if that's an option, but it's a bit more @ $150, with shipping. | ||

I like the Academy idea too...they are better than they should be...any availability out there that is a sunburst ...anybody....anybody...Bueller...I let it run a day or too...but mwoody...you are a highly probable...will pm in a day or so | ||

Joined: November 2002 Posts: 3611 Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | OK, Mike. Seeing as the top needs attention, anyway, do a sunburst on it, before you send it! (I'm pretty generous with other peoples' time-&-talents) | ||
