Hi, Can anyone tell me whats the best glue to use when reconstructing an Ovation. Basically , I have had to disassemble an ovation to fix various cracks and broken braces so now I have to assemble it all again by using whatever glue is appropriate to put the top back on the bowl.
What glue do Ovation use to build the instrument? Will 2 part epoxy be strong enough .
Any advise much appreciated
Cheers
Rusty

Hi Rusty, welcome.

Have you browsed through some of the "rebuild" threads here in the BFLG forum?  There's some helpful info in them including discussions on the various adhesives used.

here's a link to the search results for "glue"

Post some pics of your project.
