It is about the use of alternate materials in instrument design -- main focus on violins. Be sure to check out the guitar video -- lots of info and, for this board, controversy :) (check out the Elizabeth Cotton guitar style too)

Location: south east Michigan | I would like to see that Babitz (sp?) guitar would look like on Ovation's laser vibrometer.
And yeah... there are a couple reasons in the video for us Ovation fan's to get our shorts in a knot, but I'm not going there today. |

Location: Capital District, NY, USA Minor Outlying Islands | I haven't watched the videos, but those babicz are great. I played one about two years ago and met jeff carano I guess the head of marketing, nice guy ... anyway, I found them very playable and with a really nice sound. Plus, I love the fact that they are yet another great hudson valley company. |
