Location: Maine | This is a fun thread and y'all have your Maine on real good, but let me come back to reality and ask a question that is actually related to this thread. My 12 String was shipped from California to Maine over five days with temperatures along the way ranging from 80 degrees (CA), to minus 10 degrees (ME), and various other temperatures along the way. Given that it was packed as well as it was, do you think that this was a contributor in the surface crack, and if so, is overnight air the only way to go in situations like this, price not withstanding. |

Location: Indiana | I would guess temperature was THE factor.
I lost a 1613 top under similar circumstances.
Mother made it new again though... |

Location: Maine | So now I'm back in a quandary again. Recently I posted on this board of my struggle to choose between an 1866 Legend and the Balladeer. Obviously, I chose the Balladeer and we now know what happened there. The Legend is still available. It's mint, but a shallow body, and I think I've an irrational thing about shallow bodied Ovations. I can send the Balladeer to the Mothership for repair which is only $350 - $450, and finally there is the question on what the insurance is going to do. My answer to the situation is to own them both, and could easily enough because neither one is much money, but I'm getting resistance from the war dept. I must come up with a diversion, I think. :D |
