Not I. I have 9 acoustics, 8 are Ovations, the other is a Takamine Nashville series.

So 88% goes to Ovation (100% Kaman though)

For electrics, 5 of 10 are Ovation, 50%

Overall, Ovation has the market share at my house with 68% (74% overall for Kaman)

You guys are worse spinmeisters than I am. I'm glad I'm 100%. Otherwise, I'd have to keep it at 10 total, just so I could do the math. Damon does pretty well for a guy who has so many guitars that he loses count. I was worried that I lost one between Miles' driveway and back yard when we were unloading them.

I've never had more than one acoustic O. I'm very slowly working my way up the chain.

I have four guitars:
Ovation 1624 CA
Adamas MEWP
Warmoth telecaster
Olympia Electric Papoose

I'd love to have more, thinking about a takamine, but when I have five guitars or more one of them always goes unplayed so it's a waste.

One O, and one Alvarez-Yairi 12 string. One Hohner electric, and trying to sell an Ibanez electric. The daughters each have an acoustic O, one daughter also has a Preacher that I get to play.

So Mark, she makes you choose between the guitars and the little blue pills? No wonder you've been picking up so few new guitars lately. ;)

Yep...only one for me. 1860 which I bought new 14 years ago. I'd like to have more but finances will not allow.

I'm still looking for "the one". So consequently I have many that are going through the cycle of intense evaluation. I may get there someday. When I do, I'll let y'all know. But for now, I'm playing the field and am a confirmed polyguitarist. Which may be illegal in your state.

Just the one; a 1974, 1621-4 as shown below and I'm the original owner. The dreadnaught is a Norman B20 and the classical guitar was made for my wife.

I have one Ovation, a 1991 Ultra series Model 1312. I bought this guitar new that year and it has the greatest sound I could imagine.

I've been playing this guitar at home, on stages, teaching others, and when travelling. I've religiously kept it in a hard case when not being played and it looks almost new, aside from a chip-off on the top of the neck it sustained in 1992, however I superglued it back and it's small and you can't tell. Other than that, it's in mint condition and imminently playable.

I've considered other guitars all of these years and practiced on them, but have not found another guitar with a comparable sound. I love this guitar. It's got a deep rich bass, and awesome midrange and highs. The sounds blend together like nothing else.....

If you've only got one O or A the odds are you don't have a 12 string.
Nobody's life is complete without an O or an A 12. Shame on you serge.. :p ;)

I only have one Ovation (it's currently at my son's house).

My other four guitars will just have to be enough for now.

Country Artist,

I don't know if you remember ... but you directed me to the case for my CA on ebay ...

Funny thing is ... my wife agrees with your wife!

I think "waste" may have been the wrong word ... Part of me is jonsing after a takimine, a prs and another warmoth build, possibly an eliteT, but as a guitar player, jonsing after a guitar is normal.

I only have one acoustic Ovation and one electric currently.

Though I have been drooling over the Koalas for the past couple of years...I may finally have to bite the bullet soon...

I've had as many as 14 O's and A's at one time before, but have paired down for now to just the Viper and the 12-string until I find the perfect Adamas and perfect 6-string Ovation. Again that Koa is speaking to me...

I will be slimming down more when my custom wood-body gets finished at the end of the year, and then it's back to saving up for the next big thing.
