2778AX-FKOA

With top-shelf materials, superb craftsmanship, and superior electronics, Ovation’s Standard Elite models have been the choice of working pros since their introduction in the 90’s. The new 2778AX-FKOA adds a new dimension to this popular series with its highly figured Koa top complimented by two inlaid flame maple epaulets. For players looking for comfort without sacrificing tone, the new model also features Ovation’s ergonomically designed Contour body offering improved acoustic performance and the ultimate in playing ease.

Deep Bowl

Ovation’s Deep Bowl body generates maximum unamplified volume and enormous low end, yet it’s easier to hold and play then a traditional jumbo-body guitar. Models sporting Deep Bowl bodies also perform impressively when plugged in, thanks to Ovation’s advanced onboard electronics. A “sonic cannon” that shines either unplugged or through a sound system or stage amp, a Deep Bowl Ovation offers the best of both electric and acoustic worlds.


OP-Pro

Designed in collaboration with jazz guitarist Al Di Meola and acoustic rocker Melissa Etheridge, the OP-Pro 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, a preset tone enhancement circuit, a battery status light, and a chromatic tuner. The OP-Pro will please even the most discriminating player.
