Over here in Japan, I've been typing "Ovation" into my web search engine for years with very little response from any Japanese web-sites. When I typed in "Ovation" today, the very first link was to Kanda Shokai's web-site. Kanda Shokai has long been Ovation's distributor here in Japan, and they've not exactly been enthusiastic about the brand lately, but I visited the web-site today and lo-and-behold the web-site looks brand-new. The Ovation page header reads...

"The World's original acoustic-electric is still its best"

All the guitars on display are Celebrity models and the prices are still too high, but the re-vamped web-site implies something new is coming down the pike soon!

The prices of new Celebrity models have been high since the Fender days..
Marketing Geniuses figured that if the put a fret-board extension on a Celebrity that looks like a USA-made Ovation they could double the price.
And the same geniuses assume that the buying public is stupid (and they are) and won't know the difference.

But it is good to hear that some distributors may be getting ready to sell New Ovations.
