Has someone already mentioned this?

...If not, the VXT gets a write-up in the current issue and makes the Table of Contents page pic.

BTW - The "mention" is only a paragraph. They don't review the guitar. They only describe it. I've learned more about it here.

"AG" does give a fair amount of "ink" to Ovation products, and they are usually positive pieces.

Who in here owns one of these? Is there any comments from those in the know?

Many members have talked about these... I have seen them at GC...
I even saw a Beater one at GC for quite a discount.

No one seems to have one on their signature line tho'...

So, like the man sez, Who Really Owns A VXT? and Why?

I own the first custom-spec'd VXT released from the factory. Beal owns one or more as well, and there are others. I've posted numerous times about how it compares with other guitars. Very versatile. I prefer the EA Vipers and other acoustics most of the time except when I need a true electric sound in addition to an acoustic sound, then the VXT works both ways. I was not impressed with the piezo sound until I heard Matt Smith play one on the acoustic setting during one of his sets at Amelia. Then I became an absolute believer. This Sunday, one of our songs requires both distortion and a wah pedal, so the VXT will get the call.

I will be gigging with my VXT tonight.

If there's one thing that this guitar needs: it would be a true two channel amp, already pre-wired with a stereo input jack, with one channel dedicated for the electric and one for the acoustic...each channel would have its own EQ, gain, etc. I may try using a powered PA head tonight instead of a guitar amp.
