If you’re looking for modern acoustic power but crave the comfort and homage of an age-old classic, your search will end with the Ovation Ultra E.Solid spruce top and composite fiberglass produce novel acoustic tone The Ultra E’s thermo-treated solid spruce top simulates 15 years of changing seasons to develop a more mature, well-balanced sound with ample response. When paired with composite fiberglass back and sides, the Ultra E churns out warm lows with significant resonance and clarity — a tonal mixture sought by acoustic legends for decades. But the perks don't stop there. This unique design doesn’t just enhance your sound. Sweetwater guitarists have found the Ultra E also provides a comfortable, contoured playing field that feels natural on any stage you decide to play on.Fresh K-21CT preamp and OCP-2000 pickup combo The new K-21CT and OCP-2000 preamp/pickup duo changes the game of acoustic tone shaping. Up-to-date piezo materials, more precise placement, and increased glass content for the string saddles make the OCP-2000 Ovation’s most accurate pickup to date. When passed through the K-21CT preamp, the Ultra E 1516 provides well-defined mids and unique string separation, all of which are adjustable with 2-band bass and treble control, allowing this acoustic to stand out sonically during any performance. Finally, a built-in chromatic tuner with simple 9-volt battery operation will ensure your intonation on and off the stage is nothing short of perfect.Ovation: a history of innovation Founded by Charles Kaman in 1965, the Ovation Guitar Company is known for producing instruments with composite synthetic bowls rather than conventional wood backs and sides. An aeronautical engineer by trade, Charles felt there were weaknesses in traditional acoustic guitar designs and that some of the composite materials he used to build helicopters could control the instruments' vibrations. By utilizing the distinctive parabolic bowl that Ovation guitars have since become known for, Charles found that he could drastically reduce feedback, allowing for greater amplification onstage. Since the development of onboard electronics, Ovation has become one of the world's most popular brands of acoustic-electric guitars, endorsed by such artists as Glen Campbell, Nancy Wilson, Steve Lukather, Al Di Meola, and Melissa Etheridge.Ovation Ultra E 1516 Mid Depth Acoustic-electric Guitar Features: Thermo-treated A-grade solid spruce top provides a pleasant tonal response Mid-depth composite fiberglass back and sides enhance output stability and increase overall resonance Scalloped X-bracing unlocks extra vibration for boosted volume and clarity Eye-catching top gloss finish and textured fiberglass design Unique Khaya (African Mahogany) neck with soft-"V" profile for smooth fret navigation Newly developed K-21CT preamp with 2-band tone control and built-in chromatic tuner make for accurate tone shaping Carefully positioned OCP-2000 pickup with updated components emits nothing but clear acoustic sound Built with FSC-certified, sustainably sourced German materials SpecificationDetail String Type Steel Number of Strings 6 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Shape Mid-Depth Cutaway Back & Sides Wood Composite Fiberglass Top Wood Spruce Top Finish Gloss Color Yukon Spray Body Bracing Scalloped X-bracing Binding ABS Ivory Neck Wood Khaya Neck Shape Soft V Radius 10" Fingerboard Material Indian Laurel Fingerboard Inlay White Acrylic Number of Frets 20 Scale Length 25.25" Nut Width 1.6875" Nut/Saddle Material Glass Filled PPS/Composite Bridge Material Indian Laurel Tuning Machines Die-cast Electronics Ovation K-21CT Preamp with Ovation OCP-2000 Pickup Strings Adamas, .012-.053 Case/Gig Bag Gig Bag RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
