Location: Texas | I was in West Texas earlier this week. I am always looking for old Ovations. I found a cheezy guitar that said ADamas on it with a serial number that said 43-93 on it. It is a cool looking guitar(kinda gay though). Looks more like a classical guitar than something I've seen from Ovation. I bought it for my daughter for $82.00. I hope she loves it as much as I love my Custom Balladeer from 1975.
Regards,
Shaft |

Location: Zion, Illinois | Reminds me of the time I met a girl who was selling an old guitar that had belonged to her dad, but had been sitting in the attic for 10 years following his death. She wanted $200 for it. I even called the company who made the guitar and they verified my belief: it was a pre-war Martin from 1936.
Stupid me decided to be a gentleman and tell her what she really had instead of snatching it up.
Oh well, I did enjoy a few nights with her, but I would trade them for that Martin now.
Way to go Shaft. Where did you find it? A store, garage sale?
Have pic's? |

| $182 for Slot-head Adamas ???? He said it looked like classical guitar.
Is it a joke or Adamas bashing in disguise? Adamas is gay looking guitar?? |

Hopefully, it isn't a joke as some guys are very excited about finding one of the "lost" ones.
Maybe I have to start prowling around some of the small guitar/pawn shops. |

Location: Upper Left USA | Straight eye for the Ovation guy?
I'm seeing vignettes and re-runs of the Antique Road Show in my mind:
"And with us today is Mr. Bill Kaman. Bill's a renown collector of Collings Guitars, snakeskin boots and the obscure Ovation guitars. Bill what do think about this junk-mall guitar for under $200?" "Well I came here today with Mr. Alex Pepiak, he collects tubes, but Al was just a little too excited to be on camera..."
Remember that it's the chase! Glad to hear there is something left to chase! |
