Topic: Awesome swap I just did!!

Just swapped my Line 6 Spider Valve head for an Ovation Elite 2778 ax and a Hagstrom Viking... pretty awesome deal if you ask me!!!

Re: Awesome swap I just did!!

That is certainly one fantastic deal Stefan !! Well done.  Need to hear clips of that semi-acoustic and acoustic soon! smile

You most certainly will... Would like to buy some burstbuckers or Joe Bonamassa Semours for the Hagstrom... But I won't!! Haha!

Might even buy a Bigsby or it!

Re: Awesome swap I just did!!

I think you'll get a lot more use out of these instruments then  that old line sucks.  Enjoy your trade and post pictures when you get them.

Will get lots of joy out of these!! Really excited, especially for the Ovation!

Re: Awesome swap I just did!!

Hagstroms are nice. Haven't played one I didn't like.

In live with the Ovation!! So easy to play and sounds beautiful smile
Hagstrom is also a fine instrument!

Re: Awesome swap I just did!!

don't know much about the Hagstrom, but the Ovation is delicious. smile You going to get the OP-Pro equalizer unit? Looks like it would be a plus. Scroll down to the bottom of the page.

As far as I know it has got the OP Pro in it!! B,M,T and shape controls!!

Re: Awesome swap I just did!!

lol I'm an idiot, for some reason I thought it was a separate unit.

Ah that's alright man!! Best plugged in acoustic sound I've heard (besides a friends Martin which blends a piezo with 4 inbuilt condenser mics... That guitars a freak of nature!!)

Re: Awesome swap I just did!!

I don't like the curved back on the Ovations they always slide up to where it feels like I'm playing a lapsteel hmm they do sound good though!

They've made a change on this model where they've made it so it will comfortably rest on your knee (no longer a 'full bowl' shape)

Re: Awesome swap I just did!!

Swapping a line 6 spider for anything is a good deal, you got the bargain of the century! Haha!

Re: Awesome swap I just did!!

Now could potentially be swapping the Hagstrom for a 1980 Greco Les Paul EG-800.... Good deal?
