Do you really want a forum where Ovation aficionados will be Praising OLD Ovation guitars. Probably not a good business decision when you're trying to sell new products. At least it's still in the greeking phase. | ||

The new Collings one died. Young people these days have many other options and use them. They just don’t understand how cool we are here. | ||

The sub-text of each section tells me this is under construction from a template. I'm sure the web master doesn't know the public... and 'specially us old sharp-eyed farts... can access this.

You never say “never” or “impossible” but, like a few that still stop by here these days, I was lucky enough to enjoy some of those days firsthand and, much as I would love to see it, those days have probably left us for good. Enjoy the guitars, the history and most of all the friends but the world keeps spinning forward... | ||

I miss Cliff and Jeff. There was another guy who always complained about his health and life issues, but I've chosen to forget his screen name. | ||

Joined: February 2016 Posts: 1769 Location: When?? | There seems to be an online forum available for just about any topic one can think of. Ours just happens to be about a particular brand of guitars. But it also breeds friendships and learning about each others' lives and interests apart from the guitars. Personally, I am thankful for both. | ||
