Does anyone have experience using the slip grip pads for the back of an Ovation? They sell them on e-bay.

Just go to Lowes and pick up some of that non skid tape used on stair steps. It can be cut to shape and works just fine.

Hi redsleeves.

We've all discussed the following link already, but you may be interested.

Interesting Ovation accessory on eBay.

I have a strip if grip tape on the old Balladeer but after adding two more deep bowls to the heard I've found that it's really not required.

Redsleeves, The slip-grip worked fine on my Legend. It gradually looses texture but the adhesive backing stays secure. I just cleaned the surface of my guitar before I applied the slip-grip. Welcome to the OFC.

Typical - I was being helpful and you are being rude.
This reflects badly on the Queen (God Bless You Ma'am) and her forthcoming visit to Washington, Richmond, Williamsburg and Jamestown - following EXACTLY the same route I just took on my vacation, except I don't suppose she'll be stopping off to shoot arrows and eat Mexican with jW - although I guess all things are possible.
Why aren't you coming to the Tour? I thought all you non tax-payers were loaded?
