OVATION FEATURES (Per Ovation's Website)

   
Op-Pro Preamp

The new Op-Pro Preamp is voiced to give you arena-sized sound with a minimum of eq gymnastics. Every improvement comes directly from the needs of pro players and sound engineers.

  Advanced Neck System

A lightweight dual-action truss rod makes precision adjustments simple. Carbon fiber stabilizers keep the fingerboard perfectly aligned at the neck/body joint.

  Patented Pickup

Six separate elements sense both string and top vibration, giving you a better string-to-string balance, no matter what string type or gauge you use.

   
Inlaid Epaulets

The exotic wood leaf-shaped "epaulets" are now inlaid into the top with laser precision. The new cleaner design actually offers a slight sound enhancement.

  Scalloped Bracing

Play a new LX and prepare to be impressed by the hugeness of the acoustic sound. Deeper, richer but with the legendary Ovation balance and clarity.

  Lyrachord Body

The smooth, hard composite Lyrachord GS body improves projection and reflects top vibrations better than traditional material and is now even lighter and stronger.
