SOLD

Post by hicksjd9 »

I have a beautiful American made Ovation Standard Balladeer 1771LX NOT the foreign made AX model. It's basically mint except for a nick on the top of the headstock. Solid Grade A Spruce top. Neck is fast and plays like butter. It comes with a hardshell case and has excellent electronics. Great recording guitar and sounds AWESOME plugged in. There is very little finger fatigue compared to most acoustics. Feather light. Built in tuner (nice feature). Selling ONLY because I found a Martin guitar that has caught my eye...er...well...ear.

Anyone have anything they would like to trade for this??? Guitars? Amps?

Specs:

The Ovation 1771 LX Standard Balladeer Acoustic-Electric Guitar has a solid A-grade spruce top braced with a new scalloped X pattern for fuller, more wide-open sound. The rosewood fingerboard now adorns a lightweight, gloss-finished, 5-piece advanced neck with dual-action truss rod to control both bow and warp, plus graphite neck stabilizers over the joint and a dual-clamp heel block. The original 1968 Ovation pickup has been re-created and is powered by a new version of the warm vintage OP24 preamp, the OP Pro. The Lyrachord GS bowl is 33% lighter than previous backs.
