Location: Boise, Idaho | Got mine today. Pretty quick delivery for being almost across the country. Great job, again, Patch! I thought this would be the first year in several that one of my guitars didn't make it, but there is my OFC in the June group picture. Those are some iconic Ovations in that group. |

Location: Steeler Nation, Hudson Valley Contingent | Thanks everyone for the kind words. Hopefully all that have been shipped thus far will get where they are going in the next couple of days. Please remember that if you ordered fewer than four that they were mailed in separate envelopes as it was less expensive, and this little project usually comes darn close to breaking even as it is. I started another thread about leftovers, but will post those comments here as well just in case someone misses it. People keep asking via PM's and emails, so I'll lay this out here. I do still have some calendars left, and I am keeping a few in reserve, just like every year, just in case some do not get where they are going for some reason. But for now, I am comfortable saying we have at least 10 left that can be sold on a first-come, first-served basis. I will mail them as quickly as possible, but can no longer guarantee them by Christmas. (Although you never know.) Also, it is worth mentioning that I will be travelling from Christmas through the New Year, so if you want one (or more) shipped before then, get your order in before Christmas Eve, and I will make every effort to get it out before I leave. And once again, thank you to all who sent pictures and of course all who bought one or more. Merry Christmas everyone! |

| Hey Patch
I got mine Saturday! Wow what another bang up job. I was looking at the December 2015 page and wondering how I was going to be able to take down Michael's 12 string pictures. Lo and Behold the new calendar is just as gorgeous as last year and even includes great pictures of the 50th celebration and the first new guitar.
Thank again.
Merry Christmas! |

Location: Steeler Nation, Hudson Valley Contingent | Now you all know the reason I cut it so close to Christmas. I had the project nearly done by the end of September, but when I heard what was going to be happening in October, it did not take long to make up my mind about waiting and putting it in for next year, even if it meant delaying the print until the Christmas crush. But in a roundabout way, Ovation's 50th Birthday gets celebrated for two months instead of one. It certainly seemed fitting to me anyway. |

Two thumbs up - they look great, and December knocks it out of the park! |

Location: Steeler Nation, Hudson Valley Contingent | Just so everyone knows: You can still order a calendar, but I will be on the road and unable to mail any more of them until January 4th. If you want one, please send payment as they are first-come, first-served. (That really is the only way to be fair about it.) In the event that we run out, I will use the time stamp from Paypal to decide who wins out. (Again, that seems the only fair way to go about it.) Thank you everyone, and Merry Christmas once again! |

Location: Texas | Holy Cow! Look at Miss November!!! Dan did a kick @$$ job on a guitar that was becoming unplayable for the last time in her life. The 485th Ovation made, that had passed through many hands, that had been triaged in so many ways, so many times, underwent a beautiful restoration. She is beautiful, easy to play and has a voice that most Ovations would die for. Thank you, so very much, Dan...and thank you Patch for showcasing her in your calendar...it is quite the honor. |
