Yeppirs on the PreAmp It is acoustic electric.

Yes, she is lucky.....and spoiled. But she has a lot of musical talent and I try to nurture it. This will be her 3rd guitar. She has a 3/4 size acoustic (her first guitar...I think she was 10 at the time) Then she has a really pretty black electric. Can't remember the brand, out of Chicago but it is pretty much a rip of a fender strat. SAhe came to me about a new guitar claining that her 3/4 size was too small and my full size Takaminie was too wide and then laid the idea for the Ovation on me.

We are going to take her small acoustic in and see what we can get on trade towards a good mic. Thinking of grabbing a shure sm48 (or 58 whichevr is the cheaper I can't remember). She uses my mic right now but I kind of want it back...lol

I almost forgot to brag a bit more on her..lol.. She also plays Violin and Flute.. Violin since 8 or 9 and flute since about 10 and dabbles on the keyboard (I keep pushing her towards piano lessons but she doesn't want them, she does take violin lessons). I taught her what I know on guitar and she has taken it from there. She and 2 friends have a band and practice every single Friday afternoon and evening without fail. They currently lack a drummer though. Anyone know any 14 year old girl drummers in the Kansas City area ?

That's what makes her one very lucky child.

Yes, Zildjans are to cymbals what Ovation is to guitars as far as I'm concerned
