My obsession continues.... :D
Doing a little background research on my new Ultra 1511. I noticed that the neck seems to be made of unique material that Ovation says is Urelite. Can anyone tell me what that is? Plastic, fiberglass...?
Hope it's not radioactvie! |

"urelite" is what you ask when you see someone playing a beautiful Ovation ... ie "Hi!, is that urelite? It sure is purty!"... "Yep, it's myelite... I got it from Al!"

But since I hate to see friends suffer alone...
Urinate - Ur-an-eight. If you knew more chords you'd be a nine.
Euro - as in "Is dat your "O"?
Europe - "Do we use my rope or europe"?
Uranus - no explain-ation needed. |

Location: Upper Left USA | There was an era where there was a real push to "engineer" the natural resources out of everything. Aluminum necks, foam-filled necks, carbon fiber or Ply tops!
I'm glad to see a turnaround in both the replenishment of resources and the use of "real" woods and materials. |

Actually, the governing body that oversees the names of celestial objects has seriously considered changing the name of that planet, for the obvious reason.
They were considering calling it Urektum |
