The Ovation Integrated Saddle is designed exclusively for Ovation instruments that have factory installed Ovation ThinLine Integrated Pickup electronics.

If your guitar does not have a Thinline pickup & electronics this is not the right saddle for you.

~

The integrated saddle is compensated so intonation is maintained up and down the fret board.

Sometimes in this fast paced electronics driven world we lose touch with the “humanity” that is represented by all of the internet listings, fax and e-mail numbers.

I am a real person; I am not just a number.

I welcome your questions and speaking with you personally.

Tested 100%

The item you are purchasing is inspected and tested before they are shipped to make absolutely sure everything is working 100%

Time is taken to check new product when it arrives from Ovation; electronic components pass through another more thorough audio and electronics test before being packaged and shipped.

The vintage preamps and used components sold by AddictedToToneInc pass through this same testing process.

Non electronic parts like Tuners, Nuts, Saddles are carefully inspected and tested; any part that requires assembly is assembled.

Many sellers do not possess a working knowledge of the Ovation equipment they are selling and simply send merchandise without examining the item being sold.

As a guitarist, artist and former touring musician I understand how important this equipment is to the individual purchasing it; most of my customers are casual players but for some of my clients the part being purchased is needed for work and making a livelihood - an extended downtime can make for some potentially hungry days!

My endeavors are not approached as a mere "numbers game" or how many boxes of product I can move, for me it is much more personal, most of my clients work very hard for their money; I appreciate and respect the fact they have chosen me to do business with.

Ovation does a fabulous job with their electronics and there are very few incidents of manufacturer defect; very, very few incidents but it does happen.

It is much easier for me to check the product for the customer before it is sent rather than wasting time discovering a defective part after it has shipped; this is how I have always operated; it takes more of a commitment but my clients appreciate it – they know they can trust me to do the job right!

The testing process was originally started for the sake of my over-seas patrons but I quickly realized the value of it for all my clients!

Maybe I am just "old school" but this is the way I feel it should be done.

I have designed, created and employ special testing equipment for the Ovation preamps and electronic components because it is your reputation as well as mine at stake when you walk on stage!

Thank you,

William “Bill” Sutherland   / AddictedToToneInc

AddictedToToneInc does not accept returns.

The item listed in this ad is designed to improve the tone of your Ovation guitar or for replacing a defective component.

Please contact me before you order an item you do not actually need.

AddictedToToneInc does not accept returns because of a third parties ineptitude, specifically “repair technicians” that do not know how to properly diagnose possible defects of the individual components used in the Ovation electronic system.

AddictedToToneInc checks each component for possible electronic defect when the new product is received from Ovation and verifies its working condition once again before it is shipped.
