Ovation pays tribute to Glen Campbell with two new signature electro-acoustic guitars
Natural cedar and Sunburst models boast Sitka spruce tops
Ovation has announced two new Glen Campbell Signature acoustic electric guitars.
Based on Campbell’s ‘1771’ model, the guitars are available in cutaway and non-cutaway incarnations, both of which feature mid-depth Lyrachord composite backs and an AAA solid Sitka spruce top.
Elsewhere, there’s a traditional Legend soundhole with maple leaf rosette surround, diamond-shaped mother of-pearl fretboard inlays and a ’70s-style stacked volume/tone knob, which controls Ovation’s feedback-free integrated electronics.
The Natural Cedar non-cutaway and Sunburst cutaway models are available now for $1,829, including gigbag. Pop on over to Ovation Guitars for more info.
