I think they the would have done better to 'copy & paste' the description like everybody else... You figure that somewhere in their offic they have a kid who knows something about guitars who could create that listing. I ain't complaining about BB carrying them... Like was said... It beats some poor kid getting an Esteban for Christmas. (although they do come with a DVD lesson course) add-on; I just looked, and they got Taylors too! :p | ||

Bob Taylor thanks you . . . | ||

A good (i.e. playable) guitar will increase the chances that the person sticks at it. This brand loyalty will help sell higher end Ovations in years to come. (Worked for me) | ||

Joined: March 2005 Posts: 5563 Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | My son really wants one of those "Police Line Do Not Cross" guitar straps. We saw them when we were in The States but he didn't buy one and now regrets it because he can't find one over here. I used to use this tape to ring my stage set-up at gigs years ago...worked to keep curiosity seekers/tire kickers/thieves away...the "Police Line...Do Not Cross" got them to thinking...some club owners didn't see the humor...too bad! :D | ||

Joined: January 2006 Posts: 1478 Location: Michigan | I dont know if having Best Buy selling an Ovation is good for the reputation of Ovation guitars. I can hear it now over the PA in B.B............. Would someone from Washers & Dryers please come to the Guitar Room for customer service. Thank You.Sorry Best Buy is not the place to sell Ovations IMHO I think that it just degrades O's again to a low end cheapy guitar.The values will go down even further when the name Ovation gets tagged at Best Buy stores.GWB | ||
