    Default 1974 Ovation Breadwinner

    This was my first electric guitar. My parents bought it for me for my 14th birthday (1979) Mahogany body, bolt-on Mahogany neck with Ebony board and bone nut, Torriodal wound active pups, one volume/one tone, 3-way switch, and phase switch. She can handle anything---blues, jazz, classic rock, metal---with ease!

    That's kinda cool. I don't think I've ever seen one like that before. The fact that you've had it so long makes it extra cool.

    I have owned or played many guitars since I got this beauty, but have never found any dog she couldn't run with!

    Hmmm. After doing a little perusing on the Net, I found that another Fretter has (had?) one of these too!

    That looks awesome.
    The Law of Gravity is nonsense. No such law exists. If I think I float, and you think I float, then it happens.
