Tom...what's the story on your guitar? Custom order?

And, yes, someone needs to get a book written!

Maybe Fender will pay for the second edition of the Ovation book, in honor of the pre-Fender years.

I read (or heard) somewhere that the factory was ready for production after #60 and Adamas S/N 61-76 where never produced. Since they were introduced in 1977, the 1st production model was assigned #0077.
i could be wrong...

Yes custom order based on the 47RI with stereo 2knobs electronics, 1 3/4 nut width, FD14 fingerboard profile and custom color.
I used photoshop to choose the color I wanted and sent it to Al.

Thanks Kurt.
I love the look of my custom order but I recently realized that it has an amazing sound when someone else plays it! :(
Take a look at Jean-Luc Thiévent with my custom order, he is from Montreal and I could have him fly to France for a show last month.

He's a great guitar player, his website
