i made this pickguard for my classical ovation.

later on that ovations neck took a dive, for the worse'
i hope to someday have another ovation classical that is worthy of the pickguard.
the savarez 520-p's which are silk strings are not shown here because this pic was taken well after the guitar was gutted and salvaged parts used on another guitar.
520-p's have five of the six strings wound < very nice strings :)

if'n anyone is interested in assisting a person to restore his ovation or find one that is worthy of playing, let me know... i do nice wood working as seen at myspace page, but my passion is playing guitars not working on them. i cannot afford to continue to buy more guitars after making the initial investmaent and having the necks go bad,, i dont really have time for this. sorry about that.. :)

OK, I give up. Are you:

a) a surgeon
b) a landscaper
c) or an NBA player

Based on his photobucket pics, I believe he's either a woodworker/craftsman or it's possible he's a serial killer as JW thought (and I think it might be spelled Gacy, Jeff.)

He has good taste in strings, but there's still room for growth. Savarez 520P1's are ALL WRAPPED e to E.

They With a name like that I'd guess EQ,WoW, or some other MMORPG addict :p :D :p :D

Hang around Scott(?), classicals come up once in awhile...

"Let me introduce you to my little friend"

Doesn't that pickguard, with all it's mass and area, really mess with the tonal quality of the top?

Alright on the Pink!
I was just trying to teach some-one the intro to Wish You Were Here. (Another "I wish I could Play Guitar" type, with no patience.)

Great tune.

(Side note - I'm glad I re-read your tagline. For a second I was wondering why you would be proud of having a "Geriatric Johnson"...my bad.)

No Weaser. THAT Johnson is my $31 project git box. I'm trying to make a "silk purse outta a sow's ear" with that one. But it came with a nice case.
