Ovation 1866 - 12 String all over again - Sold!



For near half the price of the dearly departed 1866, an eBay buy.
With mahogany neck instead of the composite neck on the original.
Never really rang out as loud and sharp as the original.

After playing Baggs and Fishmans, the Ovation's piezo sound thunked like a hunk of plastic  thru an amp.

Don't play it for months, take it down, and it was right in tune.
And that's most of what I wanted from a 12-string.

But with delay, echo, reverb and tremelo,
who needs 12 strings?
