Adamas' unique and resplendently resonant woven graphite CVT top is the key to this guitar's amazing tone. Melissa believed in it enough to count on it for her one-woman national tour. Elegant touches like pearl epaulets, top binding, and peghead logo, plus an inlaid Melissa "Thingy" on the headstock add lush highlights to the white pearl finish. The Optima preamp with built-in tuner is designed specifically to preserve the tone of Adamas' graphite top. Mid-depth bowl combines powerful projection and playing comfort. Black chrome high-ratio tuners with white pearloid buttons look great and provide effortless, stable tuning. Includes hardshell case.
A gorgeous instrument designed with one of the world's most powerful and talented singer/songwriters. Unidirectional carbon fiber top provides extreme strength with very little mass for the truest enhancement of a string's vibration possible. Mid-depth cutaway body and 5-piece mahogany/maple/ebony neck with ebony fretboard and urethane oil finish provide the ultimate in playability and projection. Ebony bridge, gold tuners, and exotic wood epaulettes make it visually stunning while Ovation's Original Patented Pickup and OP Pro electronics deliver stellar sound plugged in. Includes hardshell case.
Features a unique carbon-fiber soundboard 2 - .005" layers of unidirectional graphite on either side of a .035" layer of birch. Orientation of the birch grain to the graphite fibers enhances high-frequency response without loss of bass or mids. Other features include Optima Preamp and Electronics, a mahogany and maple 5-piece neck, Adamas fan-bracing pattern, and a special clear finish on top showing off the graphite fibers like wood grain. Includes hardshell case ($160 value).
