| Hi All!
I'm not new here, exactly; I have owned various Ovation guitars for years, and have visited your forum as a guest as it's a great resource.
Now I'm here officially, to gloat ;-)
My current, and sole surviving Ovation is a Balladeer Artist 1121-4; a pleasant, easy-playing instrument with a surprisingly big sound.
Just recently, I found it's brother, a Balladeer Artist Classic (nylon) 1122-4 on the Guitar Center website, for the somewhat astonishing price of $150, with the original hard case, no less! Bought it on a whim, and they got it to me in a matter of days. The guitar arrived yesterday, in even better-than-advertized condition, and is one of the easiest-playing guitars I have ever picked up; well trained, I guess. And it sounds great.
Let the elite sneer; the old Ovations are just special, and this one is even special-er; my new favorite.
