A mid-depth acoustic-electric guitar with classic Ovation shape for warm, resonant tone.
The Applause AB24 Traditional Series acoustic-electric guitar provides an inspiring playing experience. Its solid spruce top resonates with full, balanced tone that serious musicians will appreciate. The mid-depth Lyrachord body is lightweight yet durable, with an elegant cutaway for easy upper-fret access.
Resonant Spruce Top
The AB24's solid spruce top produces bright, balanced tone that resonates freely. Spruce is a preferred top wood for acoustic guitars thanks to its strength, lightweight feel and ability to capture nuance. You'll enjoy the AB24's articulate, shimmering voice whether strumming chords or fingerpicking melodies.
Sleek Mid-Depth Body
The AB24's mid-depth Lyrachord body provides a lightweight feel and comfortable playing position. Lyrachord is a durable, acoustically responsive composite used for Ovation guitars. Its rounded back helps the AB24 project well while keeping overall weight down. The single-cutaway gives you full access to higher frets for solos and melody work.
Premium Appointments
The AB24 features premium components for great playability and tone. Its mahogany neck has an easy-playing slim profile, while the ovangkol fingerboard and bridge provide a smooth playing surface with rich aesthetics. Chrome die-cast tuners keep your guitar in tune through long practice sessions and performances. An onboard Ovation preamp lets you shape your tone with reverb and EQ controls right from the guitar.
Simple Tone Control Onboard
The AB24 comes equipped with an Applause CE304T preamp with basic tone-shaping controls. Its 3-band EQ lets you adjust lows, mids and highs, while the phase switch helps eliminate feedback at high volumes. A built-in tuner ensures quick tuning on stage or in practice. The preamp runs on two 2032 batteries, providing over 200 hours of life. For plugged-in tone and tuning convenience in a self-contained package, the AB24 delivers.
Features
- Mid-depth cutaway Lyrachord body with spruce top
- Mahogany neck, ovangkol fingerboard and CE304T preamp
- Diecast tuners and scalloped X-bracing for projection
- Easy-to-play slim neck and natural satin finish
