Location: Kennesaw, GA		OFC participants: just curious, an ebay auction (http://cgi.ebay.com/Ovation-2-for-the-price-of-one-12-string-and-6-string_W0QQitemZ170211927530QQihZ007QQcategoryZ47064QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem) references that most Ovation production will move to Asia. Is this true? Does anyone have a current status on what is going on? Will anything still be made in the USA? What happened to the people who made such good products? I only knew somewhat recently that Fender bought out Kaman, but that was it. If there are running posts on this subject that I am missing, please point me to them.

Thank you, all.
