Great video. I own two Ovations and am looking for a new one. Great demonstration.

good guitars, but i cannot stand the sound of piezo pickups or anything that sounds like this reminds me of a duck quacking.

taylors seem to be the only acoustic-electrics that come with a pickup system that sounds natural.
of course you can buy pickups etc but you know what i mean.

The guitar is not bad, but in this video it sounds horrible. It doesn’t sound nearly as “piezo-like” in real life.
… quack quack quack.

Both DnMZen and ZoX need to give the latest Ovations with the scallopped LX cross bracing a play themselves, I found that it has made a huge difference, they sound much more ‘natural’, I was not a fan previously, now I’ve bought one, I was so tipped over by its tone. Mine is a multi soundhole Elite Special J1778 Ltd. only available in UK. It sounds great acoustically, plugged in it depends on the amp, but can sound equally natural!

Very true. The features that they added when the LX series came to be really made a dramatic difference in the overall tone. It’s tough to get a good sound on a YouTube video, but we tried to demonstrate some of thea features. The best thing to do is get one in your hands and try it!

Thanks for the comments,

I hate the plastic back of it, this is actually less curvy then earlier models so maybe it is better,but earlier models are cunt to play cause of this shell back.
