WOW ... and congrats. Links don't work for me, but I'm willing to bet that you will be real happy with it. Let us know when you get it. What kind of amp are you planning on playing it through?

I'd like to have a natural Viper as well. I've played one before, and a burst (duh), red and greyburst. But I'd like to own my sunburst and a natural/maple as well.

I'm slowly beefing the guitar fund back up, and when it and the right deal align, you'll know it.

Not an Ovation but I picked up a nice Peavey T-60 2 weeks ago. Then I bought a new Peavey Classic 30/112 amp Thursday night.

Music, that looks nice!

Mike (Capo), that guitar looks better every time I see a pic of it. I think I'm getting to really like the bursts.

hey stonebobbo i plan on playing it through a silvertone 1482, should crunch nicely. my friend owns a weber made 5e3 amp with a crate made speaker that gets a cool vintage texture to it, so i am going to try it through that as well. also.. i bought a seagull s6 spruce top acoustic not too long ago.

I knew you would come over to the "Dark Side" sooner or later. :D

I still think that Ovation has the Best Burst on the market. I'm anxious to see your 1537 when it returns from the spa.

I agree about Ovation having the best looking bursts on the market.

Here's my 20+ YO Custom Balladeer.

And regarding what the factory can do with a burst 1537, here ya go!







And as far as most recent purchases goes, I bought a Zoom H$ recorder today. Does that count?

I'd post pictures of my new '08C, but I haven't laid eyes on it yet. I hope the Captain is taking real good care of her.
