An Electro-Acoustic with a "Roundback" Design in the Spirit of Ovation
The AB24II CS follows the philosophy of composite-back guitars: an instrument designed to remain stable, comfortable, and effective when amplified. Its mid-depth body and central soundhole maintain an immediately recognizable aesthetic and ergonomics, while the Natural Satin finish highlights a sober look, ready for everyday playing.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
Thanks to its cutaway and onboard electronics, this electro-acoustic guitar is well suited for beginner to intermediate guitarists who want a versatile instrument for practicing at home and playing plugged in. It performs well in pop, folk, variety, pick accompaniment, as well as arpeggios, with quick adjustments via the built-in EQ and tuner.
The Sound
The spruce top delivers a lively response, clear high frequencies, and good definition on attacks, ideal for highlighting playing nuances. The sculpted X bracing (profiled) promotes a responsive top and balanced dynamics. The Mid-depth Lyrachord body contributes to a feeling of control and stability, with consistent projection and a clear sound, especially when playing amplified. On stage, the active Applause CE304T preamp allows quick adjustments of bass, mids, and treble, and the built-in tuner simplifies tuning changes between songs.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
You can equip it with a set of 6-string acoustic guitar ball-end strings, compatible with a standard acoustic bridge. For transport, opt for a gig bag or case suitable for cutaway format (exact dimensions will depend on the body size).
