Re: Glen Campbell's Ovation Bluebird 6 String Guitar
BB6.jpg BB6case.jpg Here are a couple of bad but fairly recent pics of mine. I believe the Bluebird 6-string that Glen is playing in the video with Captain and Tennille is the one that I currently own. It has the smaller, Viper sized pickguard and UKII type humbucker pickups with a coil-tap switch ...

I thought I had posted this already but here is a nice picture of Glen at the White House on May 7, 1971, with musicians Bob Felts, Bill Graham and Dennis McCarthy.
The X014 guitar is on the stand to Glen's left.

Re: 12 string electric

Now, that is some detail there! You have done an awesome job with this guitar info section, Jay. Many thanks to you for your work and research.

Here is one more of X014 which I believe, was taken on the same night as the previous photo. The sheet music for Manhatten Kansas. This photo also appeeared on the back of the Guitar Instruction book from 1971.

Here is the one album cover I know of featuring the GC X014 guitar. This album was released in 1972.
