God hates me!!(GAS attack!!)

Ovation Magnum III


why, sweet Lord? why must i have no money?!?

 

and again!!!

not as good a price, but i could drive there tonight!! anybody wanna paypal a brother some cash?

 

i babysat one belonging to a friend of mine for about 2 years. one of the best basses i've played. great tone. very low, kinda boomy, but it had a sweet top end that cut pretty well. plus, they just look cool. as for the weight, i didn't think it was too bad. i'd guess 10 lbs, max.

 

story time... i went in to record last saturday... showed up a half hour before everyone else (i was on time, they were late). got to record onto tape for the first time. it was awesome!! nothing like the sound of tape! anyhoo... while i was poking around hanging with the engineer, i see a familiar case. it's light brown, says Ovation on the side. i just about freak out. i ask. he says i can. i open it up, and there it is! an Ovation Magnum III! sweetness! needed some work, new strings, neck adjustment. he tells me the story. he's babysitting it for a friend, and has offered to buy it several times, but the friend won't sell. i tell him the same story with my friend's Ovation. we laugh, we cry, we hug. everyone wants those basses, but nobody's selling!!

 

just looks like that. but it doesn't matter when it's in your hands. it's like butter!!
