Ovation Guitar setup 

My brother just gave me an old 1971 Balladeer that needs a lot of work (he knows I like a project.)

Nice setup, Dan. Thanks for sharing!

Dan , you’re my new favorite Utube guitar dude !! Kinda remind me of my other favorite Dave’s World of fun stuff !!! Good humored straight up old school stud !!! Love it !!! 😎

I just discovered the shim thing and adjusted my already good playing 1612 Ovation. Wow what a difference the adjustment made. LOVING IT EVEN MORE NOW!

Very cool! Now what if there are no shims and still too high at 16th fret? Ideal at the nut. USA made standard Balladeer shallow bowl with standard sound hole.

I see the shim in my Ovation and just tried to extract it, but it seemed like one side was connected by a small wire? I felt I’d have to force it out, or snap something. Any words of encouragement?
