Speaking of Ovations...
Couple of weeks ago, I'm scrolling ebay, and an image of what I take to be an Adamas (you know, the model with the weirdo multi sound holes).
Except it isn't. It's some knockoff, and it is selling new, with delivery, for like $92.
I am addicted to peculiar guitars.
So, I really had no choice.
And: Yes. It IS playable.
Not a quality instrument.
But it can hold pitch, action and intonation are playable.
$100? I'd raise the action up a little bit and play slide with that bad boy.
@frankp @countZZero I use Pearse solid brass bridge pins. They’re a little bit larger than what is on their site. It’s a noticeable, but not amazing difference (a little more attack & volume on both guitars with them, and a little more top end to one that benefited from more top end).
@countZZero @frankp staple a flattened pie tin to the top and go dobro 🤣
@countZZero @CanisPundit
I'm going to replace the bridge pins (they are atrocious enough that they really do need to go) and of course, restring it, and then I'll do a little audio sample, which I'll post here.
Seriously, though this thing IS playable; I'm quite surprised!
