A robust 12-string ready to fill the room with rich acoustic resonance.
The Ovation 2751AX-5-G Balladeer delivers rich 12-string tone and effortless playability. Its deep contour Lyrachord body provides full resonance while remaining lightweight and the solid Sitka spruce top rings out with shimmering highs and tight lows. The five-piece mahogany and maple neck offers stability and smooth action along the pau ferro fingerboard. Onboard electronics allow you to plug in and sculpt your sound with the OP-Pro preamp's three-band EQ and tuner.
Iconic Ovation Body Shape Produces Rich 12-String Sound
Ovation's signature rounded Lyrachord body and deep contour cutaway provide the Balladeer 12-string with a distinctive look and voice. The body's rounded shape and cutaway offer comfortable playability, while Lyrachord delivers a balanced acoustic resonance to complement the crisp 12-string sound. Combined with scalloped X-bracing and a solid spruce top, the Balladeer produces full, shimmering 12-string tones with defined bass, warm mids and sparkling highs.
Solid Sitka Spruce Top Sings Brightly
A premium solid Sitka spruce top gives this Balladeer a crisp, shimmering voice. Sitka spruce is a preferred top wood for its strength, lightness and ability to convey nuance. With Ovation's signature multi-soundhole design, notes bloom with chime-like trebles and tightly focused lows. Strum bold chords or delicately fingerpick—this top handles it all with clarity and balance.
Play Comfortably with a 5-Piece Neck
The satin-finished mahogany and maple neck provides stability for precise intonation along the 22-fret pau ferro fingerboard. Its moderate C-shaped profile feels familiar and comfortable in your hands. Dot and diamond inlays add visual interest while helping you navigate the neck. A 10" radius and 47.6mm nut width give you plenty of room for complex fingerings and barre chords.
Plug In and Shape Your Sound
The OP-Pro preamp lets you amplify your Balladeer with studio-quality tone. Its three-band EQ helps you tweak bass, mid and treble frequencies, while the onboard tuner ensures you're in tune. The preamp's 1⁄4" output also has a notch filter to reduce feedback. Whether performing live or recording, you'll have full control over your amplified acoustic sound.
