I've never listened to The Call before, but the upcoming BRMC album is based around Michael's untimely passing. The single that was released was awesome too! |

If so, I'm trying to find a hardshell case for mine and I'm not sure what to look for because the model is discontinued and not sure if there are any other brand of cases that would fit. |

I got my Ovation from another TBer. He contacted me a while later and asked to buy it back because he misses it. I felt bad, but I kept it. |

I do seem to remember him playing a cherry red EB-2 or EB2D in one of their music videos back during their heyday.

It is definitely not a solid body. Oh yeah in the Plush video. I'm pretty sure that was a 60's MIJ copy.

Learn something new every day!
