Location: Texas | Glad i stumbled onto your website,recently retired and picked up my old ovation again,was going to have a pickup installed but decided to leave the old balladeer 0riginal,probably aint worth much any way,but was a good excuse to buy me an old stock "new " 1771LX sure a lot lighter and seems faster,maybe this time i can learn to pick a tune or 2.
good luck |

Not just the young'uns go out to play, here; I'm not young myself, anymore, but I sure like to play. I have an old Balladeer, too, named "Gertrude;" her little sister ("Jewel") is a super-shallow LX Custom Elite. Had 1, maybe 2 Ovations when I was directed to this site; now, there are 7. (A word to the wise is sufficient??)
If you find any OFC reunions anywhere near you, try to go--they are just a blast, and a great way to sample just about every favor Ovation known to man.

Then you will know how it gonna look before you post it.
Go to Photobucket... Upload your photo. If it is too large, resize it. Large usually works.
