A certain auction site has an "Ovation VXT hybrid acoustic electric guitar PRE FENDER".

But everyone knows that the pre-CBS Fenders were better. SO is it a pre-(pre-CBS) Fender or a pre (post-CBS) Fender? The pre-(pre-CBS) Fender VXT's are REALLY hard to find

The term "pre-fender" is useful in dating the guitar as pre-2008.
I think you'll see this used more and more.

Spoken by a true has-been that became a Somebody when they left it all behind and their Ship (Jet) came in!

Did I leave my participle dragging?

As for me, I'm a future has-been wannabe that plays Pre-Fender Tacomas, Guilds and Ovations!

It's hard to laugh when you have GAS. Al's got some great stuff out there, like some export market textured tops. One of my girls has been eyeing Adamas after seeing Kaki in concert, and her GAS has become contagious.

Dang you, Al!

Just having a laugh. Can you do anything on the price as it's only one of those pre-fender ones ?

I just think it will be interesting to see if a distinction starts to be made between pre- and post-fender Ovations, as is currently the case between Fenders of different eras (e.g, before, during and after the company was owned by CBS).
