Don't literally drop the hammer on your new Ovation now!

My college neighbor dropped his butt on my Ovation late one night. The bowl survived. The rest....not so much.

I almost bought this one,but there was something about it that kind of bothered me.I don't know why,maybe it was too flashy for me.

Nice! Are the upper end Ovations made in the U.S.? I know since Charles Kaman died the company went through major changes.

I remember an "unrequited" love affair with an Ovation way back when.
Helplessly hoping &c. but didn't quite have the cash at the time.
Congrats on a fine guitar !

This one is not the upper end,made in Korea. The real expensive ones are made in the United States.

My 1971 Balladeer was made in the U.S. , Connecticut.
