We have seen it and talked about it but in my world I have no doubt any more.

The rest of the world is starting to appreciate the bargain that Ovation products have been.

But now they are buying them, dammit and the price is going up.

I couldn't be there for the last hour of an eBay auction for a set of Deacon Pups and such. I thought $100 was decent and I bid at $175 thinking no way it would go that high. I get home and I am highly dissapointed.

For every up market there will be downtrodden. :(

I have no interest in vearing off the Ovation assembly line just yet. There are too many flavors to taste. If I found that I liked Fenderers that would open up a huge market for my obsessive tendancies.

Better to dabble in these obscure discontinued lines of self indulgense.

That's what the biggest majority of electrics on eBay are, Fenderers. That exactly why I wouldn't buy one. Maybe if I was given one (fat chance) I would try it, but probably wouldn't keep it. I'd trade it for another Deacon or Breadwinner. :D JMO

sigh... :(

I don't blame you, but I figured it was worth a shot...


Let me know if it doesn't sell, and I'll subtley start leaving pictures of it around the house...

GrilledCheese,
I got a nice Deacon I am about to put up on ebay. First shot to OFCers, of course.

I believe that was the Hamer fan that popped in to sell us his mandolin and then disappeared after we tried to buy it!

are you that 'tiny old lady' from Poultergiest?

I hoped to scoup you on Waskel's request about the Deacon, but you did not list it in the list you sent me.

I don't know enough about them to know what a reasonable offer is. I know it's purty.

I am working on a deal that will be very cool but if it pans out, I will need to move a few sweet guitars fairly quickly.

This will be an opportunity for someone to grab one of my usually overpriced guitars for a good price

The deal is that you're moving into a smaller home? Dave
