Location: SoCal | Here's a good looking Ovation Elite on ebay at a good price. But what I find interesting is that it has the same black bridge that Cliff has on his guitar. Those are the only two Ovatons I've ever seen with that.

Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | Really?! Maybe my color receptors need recalibration; looks pretty brown to me. I thought it looks pretty much like most other bridges. BTW, has Ovation ever used ebony bridges? |

Location: Las Cruces, NM | This was discussed before, I think, is a black saddle factoty, or is it a sign the saddle has been replaced? |

| I needed some work done on by old folklore last year and sent it back to the factory. (See gallery)
I had seen Cliffs black pickup and asked Kim since I needed mine replaced could he find a black one laying around.
He said no problem. Now that I have it back I kind of like the looks of it. The big advantage is as the white ones get old they turn a little yellow and dirt and dust and crud get down in the cracks and look like hell. I think the black ones will stay newer looking longer.

Location: 6 String Ranch | we did black saddles with the Thunderbolt. Since then it's been available.
Since 2000(not really sure of the exact start) they have used ebony bridges. |
