Location: Boise, Idaho | Good luck with the jewelry bribe, Brad. Never worked for me. The last time I tried was when I bought my wife a necklace for our 25th anniversary that conveniently cost the same as the 25 year old Legend that I had repeatedly told my wife I wanted to buy from our neighbor. She gave me the old, "you already have a guitar." That might have been a much cheaper cure for GAS than what I've bought since. |

Location: Omaha, NE | I really like the idea of some kind of sound "shaper" built into the guitar's pre-amp. I have been looking at both the Fishman Aura and the DTar MamaBear.
The Fishman in particular does (or at least claims to do) exactly what you describe: Digitally modify the sound so that it emulates what a listener would hear in front of the guitar.
Do you know if the new Op Pro Studio is digital, or are they shaping the sound using analog circuits?
Cheers!

Location: SoCal | Stone, I think buying the original JW was a great idea. Every serious Ovationist should have a shiny bowl in their collection. |

Location: closely held secret | Brad, according to Rick at the Tour, the OP Studio and Pro would be interchangable. |

I'd like to see the certificate that comes with that one.

Location: SoCal | 1. Does the custom order cerificate apply to guitars already in the pipe line? I'd at least appreciate a letter saying "This was the stupidist f*cking request we ever got, but we did it anyway just for the money."
you mean you want it "official"? you know that is what they are saying |

Location: Boise, Idaho | Stonebobbo,
You may remember in the 90s when Porsche came out with the second version of the America Roadster. People paid a premium for a stripped 911. I didn't know at the time what the original was. A couple years ago, I saw one of the originals and thought it was just a poorly restored 356. Found out it was worth about a million. Having an original Josh White might be something like that. |
