Some one obviously made this... But they must not be a real Ovation Fanatic!
No self-respecting Ovation Fanatic would use Bridge Pins!
You can buy it HERE!



My apologies to any member who actually made this... But you should have used a string-thru bridge!

Well, I am currently the high Bidder because someone did do a fair job on the retopping.

The Pinned Bridge is what hit me first but looking inside I wonder if it has a carved top?

Interesting work but definately didn't leave the Factory that way.

Very interesting,My guess is it would have more interest if it was not missing an ear.

IN the first pic it looks sort of like a face, with the holes being the eyes and the bridge being the mouth. The bridge pins look like teeth.

The whole thing is vaguely reminiscent of the the naked lady guitar.

At least he doesn't play the banjo.

Go for it Mike!

I think it's really well done. I'm intrigued by the second photo - what is that wood grain(?) that you can see inside the Epi(?) hole?

That guitar looks miserable - probably because it knows something ain't right.

In the first and last photos it looks like the new top is about 5mm thick. (Thats about 3/16" for the uneducated.)

Probably an ideal first guitar for a drummer.
