Anyone else out there start out on an Applause guitar.? I got my mine when I was just out of high school. I remember that I thought it was Just the best there was because only a rich guy could ever buy an Ovation. I have long since parted ways with the guitar but I still have a few pictures of it laying around some where. I remember going to the music store and the Ovations just seemed huge next it. Ok thats my memory lane trip for the day.

I actually started playing on another brand, but my first Ovation was an Applause. I bought mine after they started making them with the Ovation-shaped headstock. On stage it looked just like a real O! Decided a little over a year ago to change over to nylon strings exclusively. Traded the Applause for a Celebrity as a graduation gift when I got my master's degree. Kinda like trading up from a Chevette to a Corvette. :D

Your right Don, it was a big step up. Mine was still the old headstock, so there was no way to hide on stage or on the front porch.

My first "adult" guitar... 1975... It is still playing strong as a "just laying around" guitar at my son's apt. The 22 yr. olds that pick it up are still surprized by the sound... I might want it back. He knows he can't sell it. Hell, now you have me thinking...
I beter give him a call.
