Location: Up North | This might be a stupid question.
Is the frequency resonance (99) on #47 the reason it is the "best of the best"?
Has the frequency resonance been documented on the "47 reissues?
Pardon my ignorance |

Location: SoCal | Going back thru this thread, it's interesting to read the stories of the aquiring of the original slotheads. I know where one of them is that isn't listed here (for whatever reason, the owner hasn't made public that information). Any other new information? |

would i like to own an original?
sure
will it every happen?
never say never.
since my house project is coming to a close it may free up some funds for some other guitars for my personal use BUT i have a top secret ovation project in the works so it may take some time. |
