Ovation Magnum I

The Ovation Magnum I (or Mk. 1) is an electric bass guitar manufactured between 1974 and 1982 in the US. The Mk. 1 had a 'potato'-like shape, twin pickups and passive circuit with mono or stereo outputs.

Peter Gabriel apparently owned an '''Ovation Magnum Mk. I''' bass guitar in the late 1990s, according to Tony Levin. Tony purchased one such bass before flying to England for a Peter Gabriel session (either for Up or the OVO Millenium Dome project - possibly the latter) in April 1999, to find that Peter had the same model bass sitting at the back in the Writing Room studio...
