| Hi. My name is Bob, and thanks for having me.
I have owned many high end all solid wood guitars, and have yet to be satisfied with them for some reason. I hear duddy notes on certain strings/frets, little things in the sound that bug me, barred chords not ringing out on the upper frets, and many brand new guitars on the verge of needing a neck reset, because the action is too high there is barely enough saddle to lower the action. Also, the tone seems to change with the weather on all solid wood guitars. One day it sounds wonderful, one day it sounds just ok, and some days it sounds not so good.
I have tried Martin, Taylor, Gibson, Yamaha, Alvarez, Larrivee, and probably others over the years, and none seem to satisfy me.
I have decided to try an Ovation, and ordered an Ovation Natural Satin 1767-4S-G from Sweetwater...

I can't find much information about this guitar, but I feel like it's a good choice, or at least I hope it is.
Feel free to post any information and/or opinions on this guitar, and again, thanks for having me. |
