Great thread!
" We'd wash up at this giant round stone sink,"
I recall this sink as a very young boy visiting the factory with my father. Certainly the first time I had ever seen one, and I wasn't even sure if it was a sink or some strange urinal?

In Moody's case, it was both

I misse dthe big group tour, but I was lucky enough to visit a few years ago. John took some time out to show me around.

I wonder if the sign is still hanging there?



If you have a better pic of the sign I can make you a hand lettered repro of it. Been a sign painter for over 40 years. In fact, I can do a repro of any advertising sign for Ovations for anyone who wants one for their guitar room. Prices are my material cost only. It's a labor of love for me now that I'm disabled... reliving the glory years.

I made two OFC tours and man, did it cost me, especially after visiting the Hamer custom shop. I'm sure it would be the same if I visited the Guild factory.
