Played guitar and bass when I was a teenager, but got rid of my stuff in my 20s when money was tight and I wasn’t playing much. Been feeling the need for a creative outlet recently so I went a few towns over to a used music shop and grabbed this beauty. I’ve always loved Ovation guitars, the round back profile feels more natural to play than a standard dreadnought style. Spent a bit more than I was hoping when I walked in but I’m very happy to have something to play again.

I do have a question for the community here; where do you buy strings and whatnots online, that’s not amazon or guitarcenter? I live in rural BFE and there are no music stores within 50 miles of me or else I’d go to one of those.

    Nice guitar, I’d like to try an ovation at some point haven’t had the chance yet but they seem really unique and have some great looking designs too.

    I do usually get strings when poking around local music shops but for awhile I was ordering direct from d’addario chasing those points, but I like trying out a variety so I’ll pick up a couple at a time one I’ve used I know I’ll get some time out of and whatever I haven’t tried yet or catches my eye. If I didn’t have the option of nearby shops I’d probably just stock up a couple times a year or try to order direct from manufacturer if they offer it.
