I don't recall ever seeing her playing an Ovation, but I guess it IS possible . . . the "timing" wouldd be right . . . |

Location: south east Michigan | I just did a Google image search. In 8 pages, no Ovations. But every pic that shows her with a wood box guitar looks like a wide neck model of some sort. |

I still have Stevie as my all time fav 70's chick! |
