Manufacturer's Description for Ovation 1771AX Standard Balladeer Mid-Depth Bowl Acoustic-Electric Guitar

An instrument of unmatched value, the Ovation 1771AX Standard Balladeer Cutaway Acoustic Electric Guitar is the envy of every guitar maker in its class because of its combination of exceptional tone, great playability and amazing features.

The 1771AX features a mid-depth body, AA solid spruce top, scalloped X-bracing, and a rosewood fretboard and bridge. Chrome tuning machines and a beautiful pearl oak leaf rosette add even more to the already great looks.

The onboard Ovation OCP-1K pickup delivers classic Ovation tone for a beautiful plugged-in sound, and the OP-Pro preamp system was designed to work specifically with the OCP-1K pickup. This offers you a range of features that will enhance your performance in any venue.

4.5 out of 5 (6 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
"Melodic Bliss"
Sound: A roommate of mine used to play the hell out of his Ovation Balladeer. This mid-depth bowl model puts out some of the most pristine, deep tones that I have ever heard. The sound is crisp, uniquely Ovation, and melodic. The workmanship of this guitar is flawless. I am about to purchase one for myself. Feature: Wish it had gold plated tuning knobs like it's Celebrity brothers, but the chrome ones look slick also. Ease of Use: Fast playing neck, and ease of access to higher octave frets with the cutaway bowl design. Value: This is no starter guitar; the Balladeer delivers crisp, melodic pitch and harmonic sounds like no other guitar I have ever heard.
Style of Music: R&B, Rock, Blues, Jazz
