    It's a long time since once of us Bee's played a guitar but now a junior Bee is looking for a decent accoustic guitar (with a pickup!) for Christmas

    Can anyone tell me what this guitar (Irish made) the dude in here is playing and where it might be bought?

    It has a pickup and interestingly the sensitivity or volume control appears to be within the sound box built ina semi circular fashion

    Mucho Thanks

    It's an Ovation of some sort. A right handed one strung for left handed playing.

    www.ovationguitars.com

    They sound ok plugged in but not so good unplugged.

    Thanks for replying

    I don't think it's an Ovation.


    Check out the Keys they are parallel unlike the Keys on the Ovation's that are offset to one another

    I have reason to believe that it is an Irish built guitar

    Any ideas anyone?

    It's strung normally as a right handed guitar but he's playing with his left (sometimes I wish i'd just learned it that way!). Looks like ovation or ovation copy to me

    Ah! I should know this one! I played it, this was at the Music Show.
