Ovation still great.
Got my Ovation timeless balladeer. I was impressed how well built it is. It has some weight to it . I got the demo,no problem there. I been wanting to get another Ovation for some time , my other is the 1776/1976 bicentennial model.The time was rightand a screaming deal on sale. Some my not like the tone , its different and not… read more loud .But I've seen other Ovations at jams and i could hear them , and I tryed my bluegrass on it and it can perform louder if needed . Ive been also doing finger style for a couple years and thought the slim neck and big hands would be a problem.Its not,infact I play better and the slim neck.It makes the thumb over thing easier which ive had problems doing.
Very Nice Guitar - But... NOT A TIMELESS Balladeer
I do like this guitar, but it is being listed as a TIMELESS Balladeer, and it is in reality a STANDARD Balladeer. I received mine today, and all of the paperwork states it is a Standard Balladeer Model - Manufacturer # 2771AX-5 (which matches the listing). I am not unhappy at all - I really like this guitar. I own several upper end Gibson's, a Taylor, a few Epiphone Masterbilt,… read more and needed something that was quite different in feel, sound, and playability than my current guitars. This Ovation delivers!! I have played Ovations in the past, and the ones I played and fell in love with long ago had a regular round sound hole - so I chose the Balladeer model simply because of the beautiful sound, and the round sound hole. I am not disappointed, and this thing plays wonderful. The contoured back is very, very comfortable sitting in my lap, and it is very easy to control (doesn't want to "wander" off my lap while I am playing). The intonation, playing height feel really good, and the fret ends feel smooth.
