A beautiful rare bird, and my first Super Shallow. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Joined: August 2006 Posts: 3145 Location: Marlton, NJ | Congrats Damon! I have a little bit of a personal attachment to that guitar - my son Nicky played the infamous "Don't Fear The Reaper" on it at the first southern jam. It's a fun guitar. Enjoy!

Joined: August 2005 Posts: 3736 Location: Sunshine State, Australia | Ugh! What were they thinking? Someone asked recently which was the ugliest O ever made. I recall that particular model got quite a few votes. I like all your other guitars though, Damon. :D | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Joined: November 2006 Posts: 3969 Maybe I missed it in earlier discussions, but who is the O'Connor individual who signed the guitar in 89? | | | Trader Jim |

Joined: March 2005 Posts: 5563 Location: Blue Ridge Mountains That is correct: he had a workshop on his yacht...Ovation delivered the guitars to him there and he did the graphic's there...from what I could gather, he's living out west somewhere now.... | This guitar sounds so great...the graphic's may not be your cup of tea, but the T-Bolt is a great gigging guitar.... | | lanaki |

Joined: April 2004 Posts: 13303 Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 I had the blue version for a few years. It was fun to play. I sold mine to CED (former OFC member) a few years ago. | | | Beggin |
Joined: November 2006 Posts: 2241 Location: Simpsonville, SC UGLY??? | IMHO..(and I have seen and played it)...it is a unique O, in O so many ways. Damon, I know that you will enjoy this one...Hell, it's just COOL! | | Gallerinski |
Joined: | May 2008 Posts: 4996 Location: Phoenix AZ No question about it - the snakeskin finish on this guitar is executed very, very well. Weather you like the motif or not is just personal preference (one man's ugly is another man's wife). And as usual the photos are among the best quality I've ever seen. I need to make a "damongallery.com" ... | As I recall hearing this guitar at one of the tours it sounded nice. Congratulations Damon. | | muzza |
Joined: August 2005 Posts: 3736 Location: Sunshine State, Australia No. The GUITAR is ugly. The paint job is fantastic. | | | Trader Jim |
Joined: June 2006 Posts: 7307 Location: South of most, North of few The only thing ugly on these guitars is the headstock IMHO. | | | Damon67 |
Joined: December 2006 Posts: 6992 Location: Jet City Thanks for the comments all. I'm already kinda known at open mic as the guy who brings a different guitar every week. Wait thill they get a load on this one! | I think for this one instance, the headstock works. It would have looked funny with the traditional one I think. I'll bet someone else thought the same thing and thats why it was changed. As for the paint job, I just think CWK2 needed something to match his boots Must've been after "the cadillac" phase :D I'll have video of it up here in a few. | | MusicMishka |
Joined: March 2005 Posts: 5563 Location: Blue Ridge Mountains I just never had the nerve to play it in church...I do value my job... :rolleyes: | | | Gallerinski |
Joined: | May 2008 Posts: 4996 Location: Phoenix AZ Come on mike, push the envelope a little. How about one of those devil red-flame guitars. Or maybe the heroine diaries? I bet your congregation would love it ... | | | Phil Wong |
Joined: June 2003 Posts: 1792 Location: Rego Park, NY, Mike made this guitar ROAR during the last tour. | | | Phil Wong |

Joined: October 2007 Posts: 2711 Location: Vernon CT Enjoy!!! (Not my favorite top, Sorry Damon) | | | MusicMishka |
Joined: March 2005 Posts: 5563 Location: Blue Ridge Mountains All I can say is that the Tak better be good...lol | thanks for the pic Phil...it was a great time... | | Damon67 |
Joined: December 2006 Posts: 6992 Location: Jet City Oh the Tak is good. It's a dream if you're into the wider nut. One of the best sounding guitars I've ever owned. | Should be there tomorrow! | | |
