Location: south east Michigan | If you told me 18 months ago that I would have a "collection" of Ovations I would have said you were crazy. Well...that was then, this is now.
I know that we all probably have that one dream guitar, but what are you missing?
I admire Alaskan Fly Guy's collection for it's representation of the Ovation line.
Myself....I am missing an multi-hole style Ovation. I don't know if it will be an Adamas or an Elite model but that's the next thing on the wish/want/need list.
Then that will be it.
Really.
I mean it.
I will be done.
Kinda. |

Location: Upper Left USA | As the wall stands today it is fairly spread out. Having the lacquer drying on a Preacher Deluxe and awaiting the arrival of an Elite T there is something to work towards or await.
Anticipation of Projects and future O models is a good thing.
I still hunger for the deep and obscure. A Mandocello and a Longneck will show up someday! |

Location: Evansville,IN | I don't think collections are ever really, and totally complete. :) There's always something out there we have a desire for, always something new, maybe something old? :)
Me I go for the more "different" looking guitars. Not necessarily expensive, say under $1,000. :D Maybe not low production, but it has to be "different". :D
The strangest guitar in my collection is a NOS Kramer Gorky Park. Have the guitar, and working on the original case. :D
Guess I'm a dabbler, as my collection is very eclectic, but I do have the Ovation Deacon, which is another one of my "different" guitars. :D |

Location: Boise, Idaho | An Adamas of any sort, since I don't have any, a Tornado, since I've always been partial to 335 knockoffs, a 1537. I am still pissed that I didn't get one of the 3 piece early shiney bowl Balladeers on ebay. Partially for its historical significance, but mostly because it went for $52 or some ridiculous amount. I have 5 more walls in my basement to fill, so I'm open to a lot of suggestions. Other than that, I need lots more time to practice. |
