Long (long) ago they made leather and fabric ones. Have not seen anything in the last 2 decades. There was talk about an OFC/Ovation strap. Miles would have latest info.

The age old ? of an "O" strap......would be nice to have a custom leather embossed "O" strap! We need to get this thing to fruition rather than bringing up the ? over and over......I'll start it out.........I WANT ONE IN BLACK LEATHYER THAT IS 2.5" THICK WITH EMBOSSED LOGO OR OVATION EMBOSSED ON SAME IN GOLD LETTERING. There is my order please make it happen.....LOL!

Really, would be nice if this could get done. :)

And, wide, not thick. 2.5" thick would be mother of all thick straps.

Round and round we go... where it stops no one knows !!!

I was checking out the Martin site the other day and was taken back by how many MORE aftermarket GOODIES MARTIN sells than Ovation... probably more than ANY guitar maker.

I think OVATION is missing the boat marketing wise... They could do a sizable "buck" in straps alone... Then again they should run 3 shifts and really step up production for the LX to satify demand... Maybe expand the plant for just LX production and GET Going!!!

you are so wrong. Send Miles an e mail about the sales of products just off of this website. I would not be surprised if he discontinues most of the items in the OFC store.
Sorry but the demand is NOT there

Sad to say, but true. Our numbers, though loyal, passionate, and vocal, could not support the quanitities of a cost efficient production run.

Yes, oftentimes and unfortunately the simple law of economics takes over in that demand is not there to satisfy supply or vice versa on the the old supply/demand inverted yield curve. For those of you who don't care I have a B.A. in Economics. Honestly though I think Ovation could take a few lessons from Martin and other guitar co's in enhancing their website like showing MSRP's, updated news on products, etc. Play On!
