Haven't measured all the Ovations I have, but they all sure look the same. I'm not in dire need of one right now but since those tips are so fragile, I like to keep a couple of spares on hand when they come up at a decent price. | ||

Mine has replacement knobs that look a little weird with the dots on the pickguard so far from the knobs. I suppose I could measure the distance from the post to the dot and try to find something suitable at GC, but I just don't like going in there much anymore. | ||
