Great video Michael. I have a couple of Ovation guitars also. I bought my first Ovation in 1979 & it cost me over a months wages. Two hears ago I purchased the 6 string celebrity elite made in China, however, it is every bit as good as my made in USA guitar. What I like about the Ovation guitars is that they force you to play a certain way. They almost, demand, unique voicing of chords. I have never met you Michael but from the way you played I think you know what I mean. Great Video & great to find someone who loves these guitars as much as I do. Regards from Australia
Michael, thanks so much for checking out the video. Yes, there is something very special about the way these guitars ring. So glad to meet a fellow ovation lover. Cheers from Philadelphia. 🍻
Just read your comment Michael, I agree 100%. I bought my custom balladeer in 1978, Paid a little over $1500 & $130 For the case. It honestly takes you to A different level of playing style and technique, that's when I started treating each string as an individual-singing in a choir, a simple chord can turn into an absolute glorious experience when you start digging in with emotion and finesse. Stay blessed brother & Keep safe in these crazy times. Danny in Texas

Gorgeous guitar I have a 1619 from Connecticut ❤ my dad got it brand new back in the day
Hey joe! Yes I love these. They ring so nicely. I first got really into them through Al Di Meola
@@MichaelGrecoGuitar 😊 nice
Love my '74 Balladeer
Beautiful guitar. I am a fan of the Ovation as well.
Hey Jeff! Glad to hear! Best wishes from Philly 🍻
Beautiful Ovations. I have a 1612 and love it. Wow the twelves sound so much richer!
Very cool! The 1612 is a beautiful instrument. The heavier strings really do make a difference. 🙌

The ovations sound great and you are a fantastic player! What strings do you like on these? I am looking at an early 80's 1111.
