Overview

The original sound of African Chechen paired with a Lyrachord deep contour body.

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 hand-selected African Chechen 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 the Elite Plus to virtually any sound system, stage amp, or recording console, and experience the rich tonal quality of the Elite Plus.
