1861 Standard Balladeer Acoustic-Electric Guitar

The Ovation 1861 Standard Balladeer Acoustic-Electric Guitar is meticulously crafted with a bookmatched solid Sitka spruce soundboard mated to a super-shallow bowl. 2 pieces of mahogany set with the grain in opposing directions make the neck naturally stable. The Kaman Bar reinforcement makes the neck virtually unwarpable and provides a precise and solid joint with the body. The rosewood fingerboard is a radiused 10" and has 20 hand-finished frets. The OP-30 preamp has 3-band EQ with 400Hz/1kHz center frequency shift, EQ bypass, a preshape circuit that lifts the bass and treble and reduces frequencies below 40Hz, and a tuner.
