Ozark tend to be pretty respectable instruments for the price - as are Ashbury and I find it comes down to looks. Then I prefer some designs on one and some on the other. I'm not keen on the design of the headstock on the Ozark tenor guitar and have bought the Ashbury one (see another thread) and am delighted with the look, feel and sound. That's not to say that the Ozark TG isn't as good. If you have the chance to try out both then do, otherwise Steve at Eagle will probably be delighted to take you money.
