Joined: November 2005 Posts: 4 Location: Sydney Hi Trendsetters, I've got half a set of Ovation classical heads It's the treble set (G,B,E) and it's chrome with pearl buttons. Looks like it was made by Schaller, but with the Ovation logo Just thought I'd post it here in case anyone needed them Oh, by the way...I'm in Australia...heh If anyone wants to see a pic...let me know Peace to all an4340 Posted 2005-11-10 1:10 PM (#333020 - in reply to #333019) Subject: Re: Half set of Ovation classical heads...any interest?

If so, put yourself on the map. It would be cool to show club membership outside of north america and europe. http://www.frappr.com/ovationfanclub mutronboy Posted 2005-11-11 1:45 AM (#333021 - in reply to #333019) Subject: Re: Half set of Ovation classical heads...any interest?

I've horse-traded guitars in Sydney for 30 years but I've only had about 4 Ovations ... a semi-acoustic (Preacher?), a black Deacon, and a couple of Balladeers. (EDIT: I checked... it was a red Tornado with tremelo I had..not a Preacher) I know where there's an Ovation bass, if anyone in Australia is after one. I wouldn't mind a nice Adamas or another black Deacon, though Frank Zappa was using Ovation acoustics when he was doing his 'Stinkfoot' and 'Grand Wazoo' solo's in the 70's...I love that sound (I play in a Zappa tribute band) He got that sound by running the bridge saddle pickup of the Ovation into one of the stereo channels (clean) He then ran a magnetic soundhole pickup through a Mutron envelope filter through a valve amp and into the other stereo channel. Zappa also used an Ovation classical/electric on "Music for Electric Guitar & Low Budget Orchestra"...it's a great track Peace to all an4340 Posted 2005-11-11 12:12 PM (#333022 - in reply to #333019) Subject: Re: Half set of Ovation classical heads...any interest?
