Ovation! Cool!
It seems that the 1st string is newer than other strings! Isn't it?
Just Play it in couple of days!

:lol:

nice one LHong...



if they're all the same age, you probably need to replace the bridge/pickup(one unit). you'll need to get the guitar set up when it gets changed. those ovation pickups go bad all the time...

it's an assembly. it's the bridge. if you pull the bridge up, there's a wire attached. as you can see in the exploded view, the peizo is sandwiched inside the bridge. you can get one from ovation(kaman), or a service center.
