What I like is that some of the interviewees are not guitar megastars. Interesting to see if the TV show features Ovation. |

Didn't you spot the Ovation in the first episode? The guy who had all the early guitars and lutes also had, and played at one point, a 97 collectors. It was a couple of fleeting glimpses, but I was wearing my guitar-geek glasses at the time |
