dave3dg,

I stumbled on that also, I bet you were "googling" to try to find a copy of the History of Ovation book too, huh ? ;)

I think the cheapest I found was around $250 for a used, worn copy…

I'll wait for my name to be pulled from the mysterious "hat"…

Recently there were new copies floating around in Australian wholesalers for a reasonable price (cheap as chips really). Flacky was aware of the most recent, and I'm not sure if anyone went for it. My copy (bought new last year) was around $A40 ($US30 or so).

I guess the hardcover is worth the extra $250 ;)

You can find many of the actual guitars in the book for less than the book itself… You gonna read, or you gonna play? … ;)

Steve, or anyone for that matter, let me know if you are interested and I can contact the store I purchased mine from who say they can get more.
