And wiht all due respect to Al, and Melissa, that ain't rock and roll. Seems to me that early on, Nancy made Ovations shine in the rock arena like nobody else. (I don't listen to a lot of new music so I don't know about this Sixx character or that silly herione diaries thing.) | ||

Nancy Wilson doesn't sell guitars. (I'm sure she would have and did, along with at least a dozen others in the 70's.... that was nearly 30 years ago). re and agree: Nikki Sixx, Heroine Diaries and that SEVEN guy apparently do. Marketing. CLICK. | ||

Maybe I'm an old fart, but I would buy a guitar on Nancy's recommendation long before I bought anything associated with Heroin Diaries or the SEVEN guy. And Nancy is alot cuter. BTW-- My T's play fine with nobody-else's name on the frets! See? I am obviously not part of that Demographic. | ||

Did you know that the boys actually wear girl's jeans? They want the low hips and tight fit. Maybe it isn't quite as offensive as the baggy prison bitch low rider style, but it is still not right. Maybe they need to come out with the Nancy Boy model? This world needs a "John Wayne" model. Or a "Dirty Harry" model. | ||

Joined: March 2007 Posts: 841 Location: CA | Dirty Harry Model. LOL. Now there's an idea! "I know what you're thinking. Did I hit all six strings, or only five? To tell you the truth, in all the excitement, I lost track myself. But being as this is an Ovation, the most coolest guitar in the world, and it would blow your ears clean off, you've got to ask yourself one thing . . . Do you feel lucky? Well do ya, PUNK?" Ha ha ha ha ha. My day is made. | ||

They didn't look all that bad either (: It's a shame that pure talent doesn't seem to be as plentiful nowadays. (I know ... it's MY opinion, but I'm sticking to it) | ||

Called it an ultra. About as close as you can get to her own model. But who cares, they need to make a Kaki King model, or even a Shakira model ... hey I'd like to see a Shakira model ... the point is they need to create a model relevant to the under 30 something girls. So for the Adamas line definitely a Kaki King model, and for the Ovation line, a shakira model with lots of bling, like a custom legend, but blonde or natural. | ||
