Low-End Magic

Handcrafted in Ovation’s flagship workshop in New Hartford, Connecticut, Ovation’s 4-string bass guitar features a deluxe hand-selected AA solid-spruce top and scalloped X-bracing for superior note definition. Ovation’s classic Mid-Depth cutaway composite body delivers balanced acoustic tone and is comfortable to hold and play. Ovation’s pioneering multi-soundhole design enhances string vibration and sustain by improving soundboard efficiency. The bass also features a deluxe ebony fretboard and bridge, a 5-piece mahogany/maple neck with gloss finish, and gold tuners. Assuring correct string tension and intonation, a full 34” scale delivers harmonically rich timbres across the instrument’s entire range. With its onboard compressor, the OP-Pro Studio preamp provides control over the attack and sustain of every note.

Mid Depth Bowl

The Mid-Depth bowl blends elements of Ovation’s Super-Shallow and Deep Bowl designs. Acoustically, the Mid-Depth bowl delivers impressive projection and rich tone, yet even smaller guitarists find it comfortable to hold and play. It’s no surprise Ovation’s LX, AX, and TX models all feature a Mid-Depth body: Its proprietary Lyrachord construction and roundback design let it outperform typical “box” guitars. For decades, hardworking musicians have relied on Mid-Depth Ovation guitars to cut through the mix, whether played acoustically in a living room or run through a concert hall sound system.


OP-Pro Studio

The OP-Pro Studio combines state-of-the-art audio quality with exclusive features designed to meet the needs of professional guitarists. The easy-to-operate unit offers 3-band EQ, exciter and compressor/limiter circuitry, and a chromatic tuner. Ovation’s exclusive Expressor and Drive sliders put dynamic control and harmonic enhancement at your fingertips, allowing you to dial in the precise amount of sustain and punch required by the music.

Low-End Magic

Ovation basses are noted for their clarity and focused pitch. The roundback Lyrachord body provides projection and detail—even in the lowest registers—and avoids the muddy tones that plague competitor’s acoustic basses made with wood bodies and flat backs. Ovation’s bass guitars feature Mid-Depth composite bodies.
