  • PERFECT ACOUSTIC GUITAR
Size: 6 String Style: Shallow Depth Body
If you're familiar with Ovation, this is an exceptional acoustic guitar and two+ cuts above the others I've played by them. Neck finish feels like there is no finish (none of the sticky, glossy varnish); action and playability right out of the box is perfect. Absolutely worth every penny. Sound is vibrant and loud, perfect tracking when played through an amplifier. Onboard EQ does a great job by itself; excellent audio quality. And it looks great in black. Purchase with confidence. ... show more

Size: 6 String Style: Shallow Depth Body
I got the shallow body.. First of all, big shout out to ABR music in Wisconsin, just outside Chicago.. they didn’t have the inventory on accident so they had ovation send me a new one direct. Good folks up there.. The guitar right out of the package was wildly inspiring to play. It is a very percussive friendly guitar. The neck on it plays like a dream. Found my new signature (chefs kiss) ... show more

  • Gorgeous.
Size: 6 String Style: Shallow Depth Body
I bought an Adamas II for $2,500 over quarter century ago. This is a vast improvement, and bang for the buck. Highly improved electronics (of course), but the hardware and construction out-performs even the carbon fiber top I paid dearly for in the 90s. Excellent guitar, hands down.
