zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Super Shallow Cutaway. Spruce top.
Overview
Ovation applied 30-odd years of guitarmaking innovation to design an affordable guitar that doesn't sound like an affordable guitar. The Summit Series is proof of that. These guitars boast a bigger sound than guitars costing twice as much. In a large part that's due to the Lyrachord body - the same type of body as the U.S.A.-made body found on its upscale Ovation brothers. Its roundback shape capitalizes on the structural power of the arch freeing the insides of sound-deadening bracing that traditional-style guitars require.

"My guitar playing friends are blow away by what quality guitar this is, and at $199!"
I expect to behappy with this guitar for many years. The only reason I would search for anothe Ovation, is if this gets destroyed in an accident, or I pass it on to my daughter. What I like most about this guitar asides from it's looks, and excelent construction. is how playable it is, and what a nice sound it has.

every thing I wanted in a guitar,espicialy the kneck, I have small hands, and it is the most comfortable and playable guitar I have played. Materials, the finish is outstanding, mine is chery red, beautiful. I was able to ajust quite easely to my liking. the preamp is not the best, but very nice for a $199 guitar.
