Just curious how most of you came about joining the OFC.

I saw an Ovation at a Music Shop, so I did a web search to find-out what an Ultra was REALLY worth.
Now I've got six more guitars... Three O's, none of which is an Ultra.
(But that Ultra was pretty nice. OP30, epaulets and all)

My story is the same as OMA's, but substitute Celebrity for Ultra and 12 Os for 3.

I think I've stated mine a few times - went looking for original pups to restore my Preacher and googled my way here.

Al,
That would be a founding Fadda.

I never realized how Kurt Douglas and Rod Stewart had the same spindly legs...

I was rescued from the Acoustic Guitar site. As I was trying to make up my mind as to which O to buy.

I gotta quit looking on eBay. I saw a nice cs257 last night for $225 BIN/plus $25. Then I looked around and realized "I live in a damn studio, and it is full of guitars, amps, and electronic stuff!"

I stumbled onto this site about a year ago but due to my mistrust of the internet and society in general I spent 12 months wondering if I should or shouldn't.

....Glad I did :)

I'm glad I found this forum. It is the best place to find information about Ovations.

A lot of good people here too. :cool:

Well, this girl met this guy and then they got married and then they had my sister and then they had me. That's how I got here.

I think I clicked thru from the Ovation site originally. But that seems like a long time ago.

I stumbled in thanks to the Wikipedia article on O's.

BTW, some of the resident experts here REALLY need to get over there are polish that thing up!

I can't remember. But I was looking for shipping options at the time. Maybe through eBay. I was corresponding with Paul Blanchard at the time, maybe he gave me the link?

My best guess was 'web link', but it's been so long I don't remember...
