      How'd ya get'em to replace *anything*? I have a CS257 flametop I bought new. The second time I used the preamp it died...onstage. Ovation wouldn't either replace the preamp or send service info for it....and it was under warrantee. So I said f**k Ovation and the thing sat in the case for 10 years. I got it out and repaired the preamp prolly about a year ago for no apparent reason.....

        O Hi GRT TECH I went back to the sellor of the guitar which ovation kept telling me to do
        and they finally agreed to replace it, no charge but ovation doesnt have any customer service as far as i m concerned. Cap.

          You can try Elderly, they seem pretty good about servicing Ovation warranty stuff. Pretty professional.

              Hmm.....well good for you then. I talked to Ovation and they basically told me to buy a new preamp assy for 100$ bucks or piss off. DOn't remember if I talked to Elderly on it or not. Maybe they had enough ppl bitching at them that it caused them to change the policy. Ovations are meant to be used plugged in...they don't really cut it as an acoustic instrument.

                  Well sure they still make sound, but those cereal bowl acoustics don't sound as full as a regular acoustic. Just a fact of life....they're stage instruments.

                      Take a pill mahn....I wasn't slammin' 'em, just stating the fact that they were/are primarily intended to be used plugged in. Thats where they excell....
                      Same goes for the Telecoustic and other similar guitars.

                        Those ovations are made to project sound outward, gets more sound to a small audience than a conventional body. SO it is more a live act guitar than say a recording guitar.
