Hi, INNOVATOR, thanks for the introduction to this club. I didn't know you are 45 :eek: I alway thought I was the most senior guy in the other Forum.

Anyways, I bought a Craftsman Ovation copy for US$170.00 but wasn't satisfied with it. So I bought a 50W Trace Acoustic to compensate for the drop in sound quality. Nope, couldn't do the job either. In the end I just had to get an Ovation original. Now, the sound is divine. Then I plugged in a Zoom 504 and now it produces heavenly sounds.... kinda makes my spine tingles if you know what I mean.

Hi, Danny

I am looking around for an acoustic amp, inexpensive(if possible), light (portable to carry to church,etc. as a feed back amp) and small so that it could fit into my car boot with the Ovation. My car boot is rather small.

Mahogany was trying to sell me the Trace Collector's edition for $1,285. It's small, nearly everything is goldplated, it has a "49/100" Number 49 of 100(produced) on it. But it is just too pricey, especially for a beginner like me. The Guitar Galerie branch in Subang Jaya will be showing me an AER 60 watter tomorrow. It is going for $740. If you are in my area, we could meet up and exchange ideas. We can then share our experiences with the great guys and gals on this forum.

Zoom 504 is a guitar effects processor. 504 is for acoustics guitar, 505 is for electric

I would recommend a Boss GT-3 or 6 Effects Processor. It has a pretty good digital acoustic amp simulator + a good Anti Feedbacker + Noise Filter + EQ + ++ +++

I feel it's often overlooked as an option for acoustic guitar but it has big advantages:

1. You can plug it directly into a mixing desk
2. It does not weigh a ton.
3. The GT-3 is available (used) for about $ 150 in thet US
4. If you plug it into a Keyboard Amp (it sounds crazy, I know, but they are supposed to have a flat response, no tweaking of the signal), it sounds super.

Great resource for this is http://groups.yahoo.com/group/GT-3/

Good Luck,


martin

I just got my first ovation guitar off of e-bay, it's a 83 collectors edition. What a great guitar :) I've been a bass player for 29 years.I have owned alot of guitars and basses over the years and should have owned an ovation alot sooner!
