A Pro Custom at the Crossroads of Ovation Ranges
Handcrafted in the Czech Republic, this Pro Custom Balladeer was conceived as a "bridge" model: it connects the accessibility of the Pro Series produced in Asia with the high standards of the Made in USA references. The goal is clear: to offer an electro-acoustic guitar with a high level of finish, a distinctive sound, and lasting quality, manufactured in a stable production environment to ensure consistency of materials and assembly.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
This electro-acoustic is primarily aimed at intermediate to advanced musicians who want a reliable, comfortable guitar that is immediately usable amplified. Its dynamic response and projection make it a natural ally for pop, acoustic rock, folk, energetic strumming, and vocal accompaniment, while remaining precise in picking when the attack is controlled.
The Sound
The solid AAA Sitka spruce top provides a sought-after balance between clarity, attack, and power reserve, with a beautiful opening over time. The carved optimized X bracing promotes a more responsive top: the guitar gains in projection, harmonic breathing, and response across the entire spectrum. The Deep Contour Lyrachord GS body, an Ovation signature, contributes to a clear and articulated output, particularly effective when amplified, while improving comfort against the chest for long sessions.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
This guitar comes factory-strung with Light gauge .012-.054 strings; you can stick with this gauge to preserve the playing balance and top response. It is delivered with a padded Ovation gig bag (20 mm thickness), ideal for everyday transport.
