Just remember, keep …
Just remember, keep practicing and practise correctly, in other words, take the mistake out of the lick before you repeat the lick in your practice, otherwise you will be practicing your mistake and it will become even more engrained in your lick. We have lots of young people who are taking lessons at our store and I find there are two types of kids, those whom you have to make them practice and those whom you have to make stop. The second kids is the one who is going to be the player.

This is a great …
This is a great comment about a quality of an Applause guitar. The applause guitars have laminated tops, and while some people are not high on laminated top guitars, they are tough and very rarely warp or crack. 17 years later it is still sounding playing and looking as good as new, and this is one of the things a laminted top can give you when stored out of the case, that a solid top guitar most likely will not. A solid top guitar out of the case will need more care to hold up as well.

Our best selling …
Our best selling guitar in the $500 range has been the Ovation 1578-4BC which I am playing in this video. The only thing that comes close to it in value may be some of our Seagull guitars. They are also great sounding acoustics for not a lot of money. Fell free to call us at 888 422 0788 toll free and we can talk with you about ordering any of our 3000 guitars at Oklahoma Vintage Guitar.

Hey im looking for …
Hey im looking for an ovation guitar, and am wanting to spend about 500, or less. Which one should i get. Im not sure what all the “deluxe”s and all that other stuff means. Im really looking for something comfortable and stylish. I have a fender strat and a les paul. Whats something that i might be interested in? Btw, this would be used as my acoustic guitar, so it has so to be somewhat loud when its not plugged in so people can hear it.

Applause guitars …
Applause guitars are really great guitars for the money. There are some pros that use them to make tons of money. We have AE148’s that play and sound good.

See what I mean, …
See what I mean, Tone is in the Ear of the Listener. Some like one thing, other like another, That is what makes the world of music so great. This also tells you that, just because you don’t sound like someone else doesn’t mean some will not like your voice. I have been amazed at the people who I though could not sing at all, and they had a great following and sold millions of recordings. Just make the music, make it loud, make it known, some will love it, and some will love you for it.

Gibsons are nice guitars too. We have many of them in the store. I think it is great that there are so many different guitars and styles out there today. “As beauty is in the eye of the beholder, tone is in the ear of the listener.” I grew up with a Gibson Hummingbird and a J45 and I remember being amazed at the great sound of a Glen Campbell Ovation in the late 60’s. It takes all the instruments to make a world full of music.

This guitar is all made in the USA except the top purfling of abalone. The abalone was done in Korea to keep the cost down or else it would be $2859 like a custom elite. This one is only $499, and is all assembled in Connecticut, even has the US OP Pro Electronics.

I have owned …
I have owned Ovation guitars since the early 1970’s and only saw 2 out of about 2000 that have come through my hands that had any problem with cracking. It is really a myth that the top cracks because the Lyracord back is a different material and doesn’t move the same. If this were the case all guitars with laminated back and sides and solid tops would crack dramatically but they do not. There was a problem in the 70’s but it was more of a glue problem than material differences. No problem now

Actually the …
Actually the material on the back of Ovation guitars is Lyracord. I read many years ago, it is a space age material developed by Kaman Aviation for the nosecone of the Boeing Jets. The black nosecone on a Boeing Jumbo Jet is the same material as the back of an Ovation. This material developed by Charlie Kaman for aviation was discovered to have remarkable acoustic qualities and is almost indestructible. Charlie Kaman was also the man who started Ovation guitars in the Mid 60’s.

Hi! Our store is currently moving from Oklahoma City to El Reno, Oklahoma, which is about 12 miles west of OKC on I-40. We bought a “Vintage” 100 year old building (built to be a J.C. Penny’s in 1908) in downtown Historic El Reno. We are planning to put a vintage guitar museum in the third floor. We are so excited and hope you can come out when we get open sometime in October.

I am not currently a treacher, though I have done some teaching. I’m just a guy who has played for 42 years and have been guitar crazy for about that long too. I started collecting guitars in 1971 and I had about 200 pieces before I opened Oklahoma Vintage Guitar 10 years ago in 1998.

i swear to you ovation guitars if made in the USA are the best acoustic guitar to spend youre money on. they were designed so that sound would not get trapped in the corners of the guitar, and i assure you there is not a better guitar to buy! i have a washburn d10sce made in china. had it for about 6 months and i like it lots, but the next guitar i get is an USA Ovation.

We sell Martin, …
We sell Martin, Taylor and Gibson all solid guitars & the Ovations hold their own well with them. The 200 Taylor has plywood back & sides. The Elite Style or “Epaulet” Ovation guitars as opposed to the 1 Soundholes are different animals. The Epaulets make it possible to do fan bracing & many people like the sound better. If you are a player like most players & you play more for pleasure than for performance, you will like the epaulet models, they give the player much more sound.

im actually thinking about buying me an ovation, but i dont know if ill like the sound. How does it compare to the woods? Specifically im considering a taylor 214ce or an lx contour bowl. Whats the difference in sound between an ovation with a center soundhole and a 5 Piece Epaulets ovation?
