Overview

Exotic, unique-looking top wood, comfortable body shape and plenty of tone-shaping opportunity thanks to solid Ovation preamp.

In keeping with their tradition of creating beautifully innovative guitars, Ovation introduces the small batch run of exotic wood Elite Plus models. Featuring eye-popping exotic wood tops, beloved Ovation electronics and legendary performance capabilities-these breathtaking instruments were built to inspire.

Starting with the Elite Plus C2078AXP as a foundation, the C2078AXP-RE features a hand-selected Royal ebony top with LX scalloped bracing responds evenly from the lightest touch to hard-grinding power chords. Ovation’s pioneering multi-soundhole design enhances string vibration and sustain by improving soundboard efficiency. A cutaway offers full access to the gloss-finished, 5-piece mahogany/maple neck.

A Contour composite body maximizes acoustic output and is ergonomically designed for comfort in any playing position. This guitar also boasts hand-inlaid abalone appointments, a deluxe-grade ebony fretboard and bridge, and upper-bout soundholes decorated with exotic hardwoods.

With its onboard compressor, the OP-Pro Studio preamp enhances strummed chords, fingerpicked arpeggios, and single-note solos. Connect your C2078AXP-RE to virtually any sound system, stage amp, or recording console, and experience the rich tonal quality of the Elite Plus.
