]]> Comment on The Ovation iDEA Acoustic-Electric Guitar by Old Man Arthur http://musicfeeds.wordpress.com/2008/10/03/the-ovation-idea-acoustic-electric-guitar/#comment-67 Old Man Arthur Wed, 12 Nov 2008 00:10:13 +0000 http://musicfeeds.wordpress.com/?p=84#comment-67 The iDea pre-amp module will switch-out with the OP-Pro pre-amp that is in many of the newer model Ovations. Many of the Ovation fanatics I know are planning on buying just the iDea pre-amp module and putting it in a more expensive model guitar. (Also, some of us Old Folks can't quite get into the appearance of this guitar) The iDea pre-amp module will cost around $299, which is half the price of the whole guitar. The CC54i guitar is probably a great deal at $599... But I have three Ovation USA guitars that this pre-amp will fit into, so I may just get the module. I am just waiting for a few more reviews from online friends, and other sources that are not trying to sell me one.

The finish on both of these instruments are absolutely immaculate, especially on the necks. I bought the duo sonic first and once I heard it through my Epi Valve Junior Stack, I went ahead and bought the 50's strat a couple days later. I've played all of the guitars in this line and The pick ups are indeed 'quiet.' Even at higher gain and volume. My only beef is that it does not come with a case. Can't have it all, I guess. Try the Classic Vibe side by side with some of the expensive strats and teles and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Has Alnico 3 pups and without a doubt one of the finest tele's i have played bar none. Sound is excellant from everything from grunge to blues, especially blues. I am playing it through a cheap old Crate 65w amp and have to say it matches my custom made strat for sound, and I ain't kiddin. This tele exudes old style classic Fender guitar craftsmanship even though it is a Pac Rim made guitar. I imagine that over the next year or so these will become harder to obtain due to demand when everyone finds out about them. PUPs are indeed noiseless but have large output and absolutely crystal clear sound when played through the clear channel, and excellant tele twang on the bridge pickup. Add a little gain with just a bit of fuzz and a slight reverb and you are Texas blues heaven on the neck pup. Middle pos. is the best of both worlds. Neck is perfect for me. Intonation was very close out of the box. Just put some heavy nonwebs on it, lowered the action slightly, adjusted the pups accordingly and voila a tele I will be keeping for sometime to come. The guitar is a bit heavy on the shoulder but I like that and it balances well. Fender finally hit the nail on the head with this Squire, which I never thought I would own just cause of the name. I own a LP standard, my custom made Strat(high end luthier parts, all American made) and a PW 310 acoustic. This guitar is every bit as good as the previosly mentioned. thanks I have the classic vibe tele in the blond. Has Alnico 3 pups and without a doubt one of the finest tele’s i have played bar none.

Did you know that when Beck first got signed, he got offered a slew of contracts, ranging in pay and obligation? He picked the one that gave him the least amount of money but the most creative freedom.

Digest that and re-think your comment/taste.
