I know Kaman makes a nice soundhole cover, but at our last practice session I got frustrated with feedback from our bassist that went right through my Legend (1717) '90. I prooceeded to scotch tape a cd-r on to the soundhole and voila! feedback busted!! So i went a step further and notched the cd to fit around the last frets. I'm now thinking I can put whatever design on it I want, the bars' name that your playing at, band name, etcetera...it's good enough to let me crank up the line6 and keep up with the rest of my beloved loonies, and not so beloved bass monkey!!!try it in a pinch!!!

doesn't the tape leave a mark on the guitar, like a horrible residue?

if it doesn't then score!

Just use a tupperware lid. It fits perfectly on the tupperware bowl. Dave

thanks for the input..to Blue Bhudda, the rosette is larger than the cd, no finish damage, i have a raised rosette made of plastic, i'd never allow tape on a finished wood surface, because it's got too much wax on it anyway!!thank you to:alpep...i didn't HAVE a kaman buster with me ...i thought i did the right thing...we practice really loud..then go back and re-set..thanks for the input....to Standingovation...you can't sell that crap anymore...easy on the reynolds wrap, you're turning blue!!!!

i can't get hold of the multiple soundhole feedback buster thingy in england anywhere.
any tips for reducing feedback in a reversible way ( as in something non drastic, no glueing anything! )

cheers

Matty, Al has the set of Ovation AirLocks on his site for $15.95. Mail to the UK should be a reasonable amount.

Matty, Look over to the left and click on Lost Art/Vintage Instruments

I am sorry for not clarifying, Al is Alpep, one of our hosts.

When you get there, click on Hardware in the left panel.
Scroll down to item #30 under Parts

Hi Paul,
I could not find the AirLocks on R.U.M.C., so I pointed Matty to Al.
Sorry, I assumed Matty knew of your presence and had exhausted his possibilities.
