Hi axememan,
I have had a number of ovations over the years which I have used as stage guitars. Right now I have a 1992 Collectors series for sale which I used for a lot of gigs. I found these guitars very versatile for stage since we would play country, classic rock and blues all in the same set sometimes. Now that I am no longer giging every weekend and only gig occaisionaly the guitar just sits in its case because unplugged it not much to listen to. So if your going to use it to play out go ahead and get an ovation. Otherwise....... Bill.

Nothin'wrong with Balladeers. A friend has one and IMHO, it's got a great sound. I have an Applause 12-string and Ovation CC74 Bass. Good guitars, awkward to play!

I agree with Capt. Bill that those axes really show their best in a stage performance environment. IMHO, the plastic backed versions don't stand up to a first rate all wood guitar unplugged but to each his own. Ovation makes some very good guitars.
