Location: south east Michigan | Woody mentioned the idea.
I held back a couple calendars in case of loss or damage. I was able to take care of a couple members (regular, names-you-would-know type members mind you) who somehow missed all the posts about the calendar.
I put this last one up on e-bay. Now please...I'm not trying to squeeze any OFC members here. I feel that everyone had plenty of time and notice to order if they wanted one. This is meant for someone like "trawler" or "superiorkayak". That crazy Ovation fan out there who does not have the time to vist us here.
I started it at $25 and put a "Buy It Now" at $100. You never know what will happen. And since the OFC store is slumping as of late, this might help pick up the slack. |

Location: Midland, MI | I had to decide between the OFC support, or the OFC calendar support. I went with Al and Miles. Searching fleeBay on 'ovation calendar', 'ofc calendar', 'ovation fan club' did not reveal your auction. Complete auctions returned a null set as well. Hrmm. |

Location: south east Michigan | Well...the auction will start in a hour or so. I wanted to end it at a time when people on the left coast would be out of work. |

Location: 6 String Ranch | While we're talking about the calendar I got mine and I have to say they are great. I bought ten and I'm proud to give away the other 9, as proud as anything that I gave away when I had that other job in Ct all those years ago. Great Job Brad and Designzilla! |

Location: south east Michigan | Maybe we could work out a deal where we exchange fan club produced calendars between us, Martin, and Taylor.
Oh...they would not make a calendar like that???
Nevermind.

BTW....Almost 100 people have looked at the ad and 12 are watching it. |

That's a bigger number than the Schaller Tuners from New Jersy!! :rolleyes:
I am staying out of the bidding for three good reasons:
A) I bought one (#1).
B) I want to see the non-Member exposure!
C) I am cheap. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I didn't buy one, because:
A) I couldn't figure out how to take a decent picture of my guitar to put in it;
B) I procrastinated;
C) I kept forgetting to ask my wife to send a check to Brad.
I'm not bidding on the ebay one because I'm too cheap. I'd feel stupid for spending a lot more money on something that I should have had if I had just got my ass in gear. |

I was looking at the cover of the calendar and I noticed the shadows of the guitar necks against the techincal drawing that you photoshopped in. Did you have to paint in the shadows yourself??? |
