Overview

Ovation's original flagship upgraded with a package of killer new features.

The Ovation 1771 LX Standard Balladeer Acoustic-Electric Guitar has a solid A-grade spruce top braced with a new scalloped X pattern for fuller, more wide-open sound. The rosewood fingerboard now adorns a lightweight, gloss-finished, 5-piece advanced neck with dual-action truss rod to control both bow and warp, plus graphite neck stabilizers over the joint and a dual-clamp heel block. The original 1968 Ovation pickup has been re-created and is powered by a new version of the warm vintage OP24 preamp, the OP Pro. The Lyrachord GS bowl is 33% lighter than previous backs.
