SPOTLIGHT REVIEW
VERIFIED BUYER
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Sound: Ovation is a company like no other. The style of their guitars is quite unique to say the least. I have played Ovations for some time now and I feel there is no other guitar for just about any style you are looking to play. I play rock/emo/grung/metal/folk and I have always gotten the sound I am looking for out of my Ovation (OVACC48). I do most of my recording in my bathroom for the acoustics and I have to wear earplugs because of how loud Ovations tend to get. For my money or anyones money for that matter, this is the only company you should go through. Feature: Aside from being an amazing guitar by itself, I do feel a case would only make the purchase perfect. Even a chip board case would insure the safety of the guitar. I love guitars with pick-ups. In other words, case or not, this guitar has everything I could ever want in a acoustic guitar. Ease of Use: This is the kind of guitar you can get any sound you want out it with ease. You can plug it in. Need I say more. Quality: Ovation guitars are made (in my opinion) very well. Ovation has a long reputation of making only quality products. I have played so many of my friends Ovations, and none of them have ever had any problems. I travel with my guitar all the time and have never worried about damaging it. It's a tough guitar for sure. Value: For $400 I would never have found another guitar as good as an Ovation. This guitar is worth at least $800 or more. Manufacturer Support: I haven't had to deal with my warranty, or any other support from Ovation before. My friend had a problem with the leafs around his sound holes. They popped off for some reason (he plays kinda hard) and Ovation was happy to fix his guitar for him. The Wow Factor: Ovations do something that other makers don't. The look of the guitar is crazy sexy. I own the black OVACC48. My girlfriend loves to listen to me play and says I look great just holding it. In short, if your looking for a death metal look, a rock look, or you just want to look cool with a guitar... Ovation is the only way to go. Overall: I don't feel there will ever be a reason to buy another Ovation in my life. I take good care of my guitars and this one should last me for the duration. If for some reason my guitar breaks beyond repair, I will simply buy another Ovation. My music style is all over the place, and my Ovation gets me everywhere I want to be with ease.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

2. We guarantee the lowest price

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

3. You'll get your gear fast

Because we have two well-situated warehouses--one on each coast--nearly three- quarters of the US population is located within our two-day shipping zones. Plus, we keep both warehouses well stocked with all the most popular products, so you'll usually get your gear fast without having to pay more for expedited shipping.

In fact, zZounds offers free two-day delivery on many of our best-selling products!

4. We make returns super easy

You have 30 days to try your gear at home, in your practice space or studio. If you're not absolutely in love with the sound you're getting, just let us know. We'll promptly arrange for an exchange or a refund without the hassles or hidden charges you face with some of our competitors. If there's something wrong with the gear you bought from us, we'll email you an electronic return label so you can return it easily and free of charge.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
