I will definitely buy another ovation if these were stolen or something, if I wear out the frets, I'll give it to my kids...Ha Ha
Sound
I own two, both flame tops, and it's funny how different they sound unplugged...One is set up specifically for slide, and to be honest, the plugged in sound is a bit bright, even with the OP-24+ pre amp, I can't get the exact plugged in tone I want...Don't get me wrong, the sound is crystal clear and good, I just want something with a little more bass...
Features
These guitars stay in tune period...Even when your hammering it on stage, I never retune between songs...I like the pre amp, although I go through batteries fast..
Ease of Use
These guitars are almost as fast as an electric...The action is so easy to adjust too...
Quality
For the price, seems good to me...No problems at all...I've never even broke a string in a preformance
Value
Good value
Manufacturer Support
Haven't dealt with them, but their website is very useful..
The Wow Factor
I really like the Koa top...I plan on getting one in the near future...I have one in vintage flame and one in honey burst flame..I'm not sure they make these any more, but most ovations get plenty of "oooo's and ahhh's " from the crowd..
