@@theathletearchives thank you! Epic day!

@@catkafcatkaf incredibly epic!

Well tell that to Clemson University. They wanna allow their students to rush the field every game then bitch when they lose and the other team rushes the field against them.

@weeman728 Dear Clemson University, even though it's exciting, stop allowing rushing onto the field after games, it's uncontrollable and too chaotic. P.S. and don't get mad when you lose a game. You feel better now.

@@paynefree5386 it stayed respectable for the most part - but I wonder if league will ban it?

@@weeman728 it stays under control for the most part and a lot of respect to the coaches, players, and fans for keeping it under control.

@@paynefree5386 understand the sentiment

🧂

I’m an Oregon fan so I’m good🤞🏻

And you suck!

@@joshpruitt9935 then why are you in this comment section then go somewhere else dude and grow a pair

I looked down, they are there still, SEC teams are notorious for acting like this more than any other cfb teams, you all will go so far to threaten your own players, it’s always been like that, sorry man. I guess we can add Michigan and NC State to that too though

@@holden5478 Clemson Memorial Stadium lets fans on the field after ever game. “Meet at the Paw.” It’s the only stadium that allows it.

Way to do your research. 😂

Our players & fans weren't disrespectful to your field, this rival is intense every year, don't be a hater but a good sport. Y'all just need to be coached better & play better than Y'all will compete again. ACC is a weak conference period

@@neildorrity9507 I'm not a Clemson fan boss. I just thought it was odd that an opposing team's fans is on Clemson's field.

@@ParaRipperShaw that's so weird. Does Clemson do this every time they lose?

dayum boy you are a snowbunny lover

@@GodLovesComics haha I saw that one!

I had no idea WE did the flag thing too. First you only hear what happened at Michigan / Ohio State. Then you see there were multiple times it happened all over...and here we are doing it. Weird how these trends spread. Dabo's standing there probably pissed but also trying to make sure his players don't get suspended.

@@sclawman I can’t tell, were the players mixing it up a little bit in the middle?

@ParaRipperShaw I don't think it was a scuffle. Our players weren't staking the flag-just waving it.

@@DonaldSimmons-u5t epic!

@@malikrahim-ei1vd believe!!!

Clemsux salty. Lets see who wen a naty 2024 lol

Aw man! You done went and hurt our feelings.....I reckon this victory means nothing now.....😂😂😂

Holy crap 🤯this statistic completely wipes out the loss at home Clemson just suffered at the hands of SC! Incredible. Clemson has more Nattys than SC has conference titles. Clemson also just lost at home! That just happened yesterday! Holy crap! Clemson lost? At home? To a team with 0 conference titles? Wow, I thought Clemson was good though? They have more natty's than SC has conference titles. What the heck man, whats going on? But Clemson just lost to that same team?!? At home? Oh man thats wild. Good thing that because Clemson has more nattys than SC has conference titles, it completely negates the loss at home! I was almost worried for a moment but then you reminded me that Clemson ahs more natty's than SC has conference titles so I guess that means they didn't lose to SC? At home?

What have you done for yourself lately! 🤫🤫

Aww butthurt pussy can't handle losing so has to resort to the past. We live better lives than you and don't have rest on history to live good lives. We own this state. You just rent a corner. #fact

@@Tigerprodz11 yep. And FSU for now.

@@landonrichards223 hmmm i think I saw that one live but didn’t get it on vid.

@ oh ok but great work!

@ thanks I’ll be getting more this season

Sounds and plays like an Ovation to me!

I can't tell the difference - especially when plugged-in.

Yeah exactly! Isn't that what art is: Risk, controversy, progress? Avant garde!!

haha and had a great time doing it!!

@@Huzzah1 I’ll be posting when clemson hosts South Carolina soon.

Take 2 aspirin in the morning, then deal with it. In no way we're RUclips viewers harmed while watching this demonstration.

Thank you! Especially with a lack of lutherie specialty tools. I appreciate your comment!

A couple of things. 1st, the strings on the demo were very light gauge electric guitar strings - maybe even 9s. I now have 12s on it. 2nd, as I mentioned, this is a low-end 70's Ultra model that already had a damaged bowl. 3rd, I was playing it with the original pickups through a Boss Micro Cube. It's not going to sound like a Huss & Dalton through a top of the line Fishman system. 4th, its not an atrocity, you're being over-dramatic. Under that standard, Eddie Van Halen's FrankenStrat is an atrocity.

Exactly. The reason I made a vid was because I was looking for luthiers who were making mods to the Ovations. An Ovation can make a new player sound good and keep interest in learning. I think many potential players quit because of the pressure it takes to hold down acoustic chords. Even on very good acoustics. Thanks for your thoughts!

It's been working great - especially now with .053-.012 phosphor-bronze strings.

That's great! A secondary benefit.

Yeah - but it still tends to slide around. I don't think this sounds any different from the deep bowl now that it has this mahogany back.

@@ParaRipperShaw Maybe that's an older Ovation, now they come in slim bowl, med bowl and the large have a flat side on the belly. And like I said a guitar strap will work wonders.

@@12babyapes59 Yes, I agree. The newer ones have more comfortable backs. I love the guitar and wanted to play it more so that's why I modified it. The neck is perfect. This just gives an option for the older ones that the player loves that might be sitting in a case.

I think part of the thin should is I recorded that with electric guitar strings - 10s I think. I'll do an update with the Ovation factory recommended strings.

​@@ParaRipperShaw...exactly my question ..what are the original factory spec strings for the 1970's big bowl acoustic balladeer?

@@Timba-w7f Within reason, you should be able to use any good acoustic steel strings. I noticed that the dude making this video had strung it with nylon strings originally! Apparently, he went from that mistake to another one by using electric strings on his "mod". Anyway, the standard string gauge that most manufacturers put on their instruments would be an acoustic light, which is usually .012-.054. I like Martin Marquis, but any brand will do. If those feel too hard to play, you could go extra light, but then you'll have more trouble keeping the tuning. I wouldn't go thicker than medium (.013-.056), because at some point the strings will not run smoothly over the nut slots, which then would need to be filed wider. Ovations have a smart bridge design where you don't have to deal with pins, you just feed the strings through the drill holes from the bottom of the instrument. The balladeer also had decent machine heads, I believe they're rebranded Schallers.

@@JohannesLabusch you are correct with the .012 bottom but it looks like the top is recommended .053 (minuscule difference). Yes, I did try it with nylon strings with meh results. This mod though, has overall been working very well. Especially with the recommended .053-.012 phosphorus or nickel acoustic strings.

Thank you! You almost can't play those things with the deep bowl. One was even smashed because my friend's little nephew though it was a kiddie seat.

Unplayable? It plays great!

They are fantastic guitars.

haha thanks! its very well built but it is a cheaper model. Maybe I got the idea from my buddy in college who inherited an AMC Gremlin and he cut the top off and made it a convertible.

back to fsu dominance!
