Ovation1283 Preacher Deluxe Repaired & Customised

Year: 1970

This guitar is mine. It has been repaired by Mike, the previous owner of this beauty who has done a fantastic job with help of Ovation Fan Club's members and Ovation's Customer service. Please, read this guitar's story at the end of the page. Some pics of this guitar before. By this way, you can appreciate the fantastic job done by Mike!!         And what she looks now... The story of this guitar by Mike (excerpt from a post on the OFC board): "Start with a classic Ebay auction in which the pictures are bad, the Seller is doing this for a friend and they really sell dolls and garage clutter 99% of the time. Very nice people to work with though. The instrument arrives in a case I immediately have to put out in the garage. The switches are boken off, the gold plating is worn and the fifth fret inlay has been removed. Also someone recoated the polyurethane finish on the neck with lacquer.   Thanks to the efforts of Customer Service, Rick "Chatman" and "BruDev" the electronics are refreshed, revived and renergized!   In the mean Time I get to polish my skills on Paul Moody's instrument which is now the "GFKAV" or guitar formerly known as viper! Removed from it is a fairly nice Deluxe neck that he had picked up from Miles some time back. It now sports a rejuvinated Deacon neck which I must say feels "right" on this body. Throw in a realignment of the knobs and switches to a "Bluebird Viper III" configuration along with an upgrade to Seymour Duncan Phat Cats. It receives a figured Walnut pickguard from the same batch as my Sunburst Deacon 12.   Along comes Tony Calman's Manly Wood Tone Viper back for a little lifetime warrantee work. Tony has been a great encourager and supporter of my garage efforts and if necessary I would take a bullet for him. Hopefully small caliber and not in a vital area, but all the same. I rework Tony's Viper and use a second batch of Walnut veneer for his pickguard and TRC. Now when you dremel out the openings for the Viper sized Pups you can make a TRC out of each plug. The other TRC ended up on the Preacher Deluxe.   So where is this going? Edouard's (Dude) Preacher Deluxe has parts, pieces and soul from Hartford CT, Ebay, Stewmac, MWoody, Chatman, BruDev, Moody PI, Miles and Tony Calman at the very least. And without the advice, criticism and sarcasm (what we do best?) from others on this board, where would I be?   I offer to you the first International OFC Guitar!  MWoody (Mike) 17 novembre 2005
