No more guitars for me for a while though.

Location: Winnipeg, Manitoba CANADA		It never ceases to amaze me at the endless variations on Ovation guitars and the rare models (like this one...) that continue to appear (or re-appear, as it happens).


That is one sexy piece of wood!!

Location: SoCal		It is a special guitar and I was honored when Bruce entrusted me with it.

The finish is such a deep honey, the tone is far superior to any other Ovation that I have played (and some will tell you I have had or have a number of outstanding early and late O's and A's).

For a long time, Bruce had loaned me the guitar. My wife told me that it will never leave.

As the pre-production slothead (I have #50) is the "holly grail" of the Adamas, I see this guitar as the "holly grail" of the O's.
