Player's Perspective

Ovation is taking a step towards the traditional side of things with their first all-wood acoustic guitar! They were swinging for the fences with this one and they hit a home run.

The guitar sounds as beautiful as it looks and the maple body provides a bright sound that pairs well with the spruce top for a tone that is is extremely clear and articulate but also has some warmth to it. The overall build quality is spectacular and the guitar showed up to our store already with very low action and smooth playability. Add to that the Fishman electronics that accurately and clearly convey the beautiful sound of the guitar for when you want to plug in and dial up the volume.

It's clear that Ovation put their best of the best to work on this run of only 25 guitars. And as luck would have it, ours is #7 in the run!

Manufacturer's Description

High-quality, hand-selected tone woods are the foundation of any finely crafted acoustic instrument. This is a shared commonality among storied acoustic guitar and drum makers. When Ovation joined the Drum Workshop family of brands in 2015, a new era for the legacy brand was created. Both award-winning companies are focused on supplying the music world with a reliable, player-friendly instrument that is at the same time versatile and sonically distinctive. To that end, Ovation is proud to announce the 2019 All-Wood Elite Golden Californian Limited Edition. This superb guitar is expertly hand-crafted in California of stunning European flamed maple with a solid Moon Spruce top. Ovation’s trademark headstock and multi-port, Elite sound hole design complete our first-ever all wood model. Only 25 numbered guitars will be produced and sold worldwide.
