Location: south east Michigan		I've reached the "one in / one out" phase so here we go.

2078T Elite / USA made
Only about a dozen of these were made for Sweetwater Music.
LX features
Deep Contour bowl
OP-Pro pre-amp
nice dark ebony fretboard
maple neck
and of course... a hardshell case.

$530 ... shipping included to the CONUS

When I got this guitar I had to remove all the shims to get the action down to where I liked it. If I was going to keep it I'd leave it like that and it would have been fine for years to come. However, I would never sell it to anyone in that condition so I sent it off to the Mothership for a neck re-set and a fresh set-up. There is now plenty of room to bring the action up or down to your hearts desire.




Tho I'm moving this along with no.. ahem..." regrets" I will miss one feature. With a little right hand strumming technique you can get kind of a brush like, snare drum like, percussion sound.
It is a fine example of Ovation's best "bang for the buck" model.

What's up next for 'ya, Brad? Do tell!

That Sweetwater T was a nice guitar ... I was hoping to score one some day. But alas, not enough money hanging around ... seems like only those folks with steady guaranteed incomes can buy guitars these days!

Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR		The Sweet-T arrived safe-n-sound to the Great Northwest.
After wandering around for awhile it is back Home.
I know this might look the same as other pics I have posted, but it really is new!



See? Different guitar straps on the case in back. :p
