Joined: March 2004 Posts: 119 Location: Georgia USA | I appreciated the info on "Getting More Out Of Your Ovation Deacon Or Breadwinner". I'm working on a clean PDF version with color illustrations. Can some of you look at this and proofread it? I still need to work more on the guitar pic on the first page, but it's almost there. Getting More PDF | ||

But if I did, This would certainly explain alot of things about the breadwinner and deacon Guitars. Thanks for putting the time into it and thankyou Miles for agreeing to use it in the reference Section. It will be a BIG Help To alot of O' Solidbody owners. | ||

Wayne, if you have the copyright info, I could put that on it to keep it legal. But considering the way Ovation has pretty much forgotten they ever made Deacons and Breadwinners, we probably wouldn't be in trouble without it. Jas | ||

Joined: May 2002 Posts: 3005 Location: Las Cruces, NM | Excellent Job Jas Makes me realize why I've always wanted a Breadwinner. I could have bought one when I bought my Viper (They were inventory from a store partnership in Escondido, CA that had split closing the store), Poway music got half the inventory of 70's Ovations to settle the breakup and among them was a Breadwinner that I thought was too radical for a bluegrass/country picker. The Viper seemed to fit in well on Merle Haggard/Johnny Cash type songs and even Buck Owens, The Breadwinner looked like Grateful Dead/Janis Joplin and the loss of my DOD security clearance and subsequently, my job. Might have been worth it. | ||

Would you be interested in doing any others? The UKII and Thunderhead come to mind as the next two most misunderstood instruments. | ||

Bluebird can give more info on its origin. I would be happy to work on others, but I'd appreciate some typing help. Email me a Word .doc or .txt file and pix. It'll have to jump in line behind my current secret project for Hizzoner, coming soon. Jas jasingram.com | ||
