A class of its own.

Extraordinary features, excellent sounds and a consistently high level of quality are the basic recipe of the Ovation Pro-Series.

Over the last five decades, Ovation has made a name for itself through groundbreaking developments and modern designs, especially in circles of advanced and professional musicians. Legendary world stars have been swearing by the instruments from American high-end manufacturers for decades, and model names such as Balladeer, Legend and Elite still contribute significantly to the level of awareness of the Ovation brand. All of these historical models, with their specific features, are combined in the Pro Series and still form the core range of Ovation Guitars.

Balladeer series:

A high standard.

The Ovation Balladeer series is ideal for anyone who is looking for a workhorse for the stage and studio in the mid-price segment, but does not want to miss out on an attractive look or sophisticated technical features.

The instruments owe their appealing acoustic sound to their solid spruce top (A-grade), which has a scalloped X-bracing on the underside — a cross-arranged wooden structure - is provided. All models in this series have a center soundhole, i.e. a sound hole in the middle of the guitar top, which is surrounded by a subtle Pearl Oak Leaf rosette.

Equally subtle dot/diamond inlays can be found in the five-piece mahogany/maple neck, which is particularly stable and torsion-resistant due to its construction.

The Deep Contour Lyrachord® delivers increased sound volume with easy handling. Body in the weight-reduced GS version.

But what would an Ovation be without the typical electro-acoustic sound via amp or PA?
This is ensured by an OCP1K pickup, which, with its extra-large piezo crystals, absorbs the vibrations not only from the strings, but also from the ceiling.
An OP-Pro preamp is used in this model series for further processing of the signal.
