Gawd, a pickguard on an Ovation has got to be the butt ugliest thing...

I'm tempted to bid on the basis of that dog-chewed-looking case alone!

Now I know...the purpose of a hardshell case is to protect it contents....but how in the world do some of these cases get mangled and damaged the way they do?....did the owner of this guitar ever say...."Hey Joe,let's tie our guitars to the bumper of the truck and drag 'em into town and make some music".....Plum Amazin' :rolleyes:

This could be the case that Goober's been looking for! A little duct tape, some padding, some imagination and yer on yer way. Comes with an extra guitar too.

It's amazing how many times I've seen this. Some idiots see the slot head on a Folklore & assume it's a guitar designed for nylon-strings, despite the cambered fingerboard & inlays. Love that pickguard!

Ever think the top and bridge will only support nylon strings because of the damage?

No, I've seen perfect used Folklores in stores with nylon strings. The fact that he's actually called the guitar a "classical" when it's obviously a steel string suggests he's had too many games without a helmet, rather than just being cautious.

Ahh ... a rugby player. Apparently the case has suffered scrum damage.
