| All;
I have a chance to buy an Ovation 1113 classical but I don't know much about them.
Anyone know what they are selling for nowadays? What would a hardshell case for one cost?
TIA |

I like D'Addario EJ46 Hard Tension. They seem to last longer than the regular Tension and are not really much harder to play.
Here's one on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/Ovation-USA-Classical-electric-mod-1863_W0QQite... |

| I bought the guitar, the case is a little rough but the guitar is nice.
What is the difference between regular and high tension strings? I take it they are strung tighter, would this have any effect on the bridge on an older guitar? (Mine is a '79)
I see some string sets come with 2 G strings??
Any comments on ball end versus regular end strings? |

Please repost them. I for one, need lessons on how to post pics.

I was just thinking it would be nice to have a sticky to refer new members to explaining how to post links to images and URLs, and how to d/l images to their photo albums. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I still haven't figured out how to post links or pics. If we do a seminar, can the teacher be someone who uses words that I understand? I don't know if such a person exists. Now that my second kid is in college, I don't have anyone who can try to explain it to me. They never had the patience anyway. |
