| Hi,
I'm a long time guitar player, been playing since I was 2 yrs old. I've been a guitar teacher, I have a recording studio at home and play regular gigs as a duo with a good friend, I have thousands of pounds worth of gear including the amazing Kemper profiling amp, Roland synth and boss rc300 lopper to create songs on the fly... So, I recently thought, why oh why do I still play, record and perform with an acoustic I bought for £100 off a friend when I was a student that isn't even comfortable in my hands?!
So I've just had my first-born (a handsome lad!) and going to treat myself to a new acoustic. Obviously I can't go crazy but I've always been a fan of Ovations.
There are 3 guitars I have my eye on, all for around the same price (£300-400). Any advice, tips and collective experience on which of these I should go for would be greatly appreciated! These are all in second hand but in great condition...
1771 in black (2006)
S771ax (doesn't say which year)
3712 in sunburst (1988 mij)
Many thanks in advance!
Stefan.

Location: Steeler Nation, Hudson Valley Contingent | Welcome and congratulations on the newborn Stefan! If it were me, I'd buy the 1771 because i'm biased to USA-made given the option. Not many can answer you though here in the welcome section. A moderator should come along shortly to grant access to the full site. Be sure to re-post your question in the general section for a wider variety of answers when you can. |
